Today we woke up to the sound of howlers monkeys and toucans and ….rain! When it rains here it is torrential!

What I also discovered last night if you have two pina coladas then you can release an enzyme group called bromelain from pineapples which is used as a meat tenderiser and causes your mouth to tingle and becomes very sensitive for 24 hours!! Beer from now on.

We went on a walk over the suspension bridges

And then into the rainforest

Completely different to anything else. After a quiet afternoon relaxing (and a dip in the plunge pool) we had a night walk with a guide. He really knew his stuff and we saw a variety of organisms

Cane Toad
Red eyed tree frog
Vine snake
Tarantula

It was very hot and humid in the forest so we ended the evening with dinner and beers!

One response to “Day 8”

  1. That frog pic looks like something out of national geographic! Incredible stuff – go steady on the cocktails!
