More from Costa Rica

More pics from my Costa Rica trip. Enjoy!


The runway in Quepos where my flight from San Jose landed.
Ribs, plantain and yucca at Coki's. Delish. It used to have a dirt floor, leaf roof, and the meat was cooked on a bed spring over a fire pit. You'll need to ask a local how to get there, though.
Some kind of crazy spider. I think it's called a spiny orb-weaver.
About ready to zip down the line....

Zip-line canopy tour.
Rio Canas, two days before we fished it. Good shape.

There are bugs in Costa Rican rivers.
Leaf-cutter ants.
Ever hear of a Daihatsu BeGo? The roof leaked profusely when it rained.
One of the many stray dogs around Quepos.
Great kiskadee. Far from the prettiest bird in Costa Rica, but not bad.

Groove-billed ani?

Brown pelican

The best sangria in Costa Rica can be had at Ronny's.
The view from Ronny's. It's apparently a great place to go to catch a sunset, but it was cloudy both times I ate there. Odd for the dry season.

Three-toed sloth.

One of the Costa Rican-brewed beers. My favorite.
