Montellueve... huh Monteverde

From Arenal we drove to Monteverde. It was a bumpy ride and the weather switched to cloudy to misty and rainy... And that's how our stay in Monteverde was: rainy! But that's why it's called the rainforest I guess...

On our way we suddenly saw this sign in Santa Elena. The witnesses are everywhere, even in the mountains!

We caught this beautiful sunset in the evening:

The next day it wasn't raining in the morning luckily and so we did a hiking trip through the rainforest (with the hanging bridges). There was also a hummingbird garden (colibri) which had many different kinds of hummingbirds flying around. The sound of them flying around your ears is unbelievable, taking pictures was a challenge. They are incredibly fast and they hardly sit still!

Time to leave again... When we left Monteverde the scenery was amazing. At one side of the mountain we had the misty Monteverde and other mountain villages. At the other side of the mountain the sun showed up and we got to see the magnificent Arenal lake!

Up to Manuel Antonio and the sun!!!

Hasta pronto,

Maria
