Costa Rica

Just back after a week in Costa Rica for Thanksgiving. The sense of natural life there is incredible. The photos are in the thousands but will start here going backwards. The stick you see here is actually a praying mantis in the form of a stick bug...we swam in the waterfall, saw how coffee is produced from start to finish, and watched hundreds of humming birds feed each morning on this flowering tree. We stayed with great friends Kate, Pat and Lucas at Morphose Mountain Retreat for most of the trip.
They were incredible hosts, 'tour guides' and provided exquisite housing. Check out their link when you have a moment and try to include a stop there on your next trip to Costa Rica. It's well worth the visit....lots of photos to follow this week!
