Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio

Yesterday we drove an hour south with James' parents to Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio to see the native Costa Rican animals. The park is a rainforest & tropical wetlands. We did an hour and a half walk with a local guide and saw many native animals including the following:






White Faced Monkey









Jesus Christ Lizard (named this because it seems to walk on water)












Sloth
















Red eyed Tree Frog












The hike ended at a beautiful white sand beach where we swam and relaxed (until I got stung in the hand by a flying ant! OUCH)




After the park we went to lunch at a restaurant overlooking the ocean where we had yummy fresh Mahi Mahi.


And as always we had a beautiful sunset

    Your trip looks amazing. I'd so like to be there right now, away from all the snow. I didn't realize the whole fam was joining. Looks like a lot of fun!!
