The previous expedition we went to Costa Rica. We arrived in San Jose and stayed at backpacker’s hostel. We went to town later that night and bought souvenirs and food. The next morning we ate pastries for breakfast and headed out to a town called La Fortuna in the middle of the rainforest.
In La Fortuna we went to a river that had a small waterfall. At the waterfall there was a rope swing and it swung us right in front of the waterfall. The next day we went to a resort called Los Lagos and we went horseback riding. Evan Small and I decided to race on our horses and of course I won the race. I almost forgot to mention that La Fortuna Is next to a big active volcano. After we went horseback riding we went to the pool area and went down three different water slides, there was also natural hot springs that we went to. Later that night we went to town and bought more souvenirs and more food. The next day we went back to Los Lagos and went zip lining and saw a small snake that is deadly. We also went back to the rope swing and also back to town. Then at night went back to the hot springs and water slide that was our last day in La Fortuna.
The next morning we went to Manuel Antonio and went to the beach. The next day we went back to the beach and rented 1 surf board, 3 body boards and 1 skim board. We played in the water pretty much the whole day. The next day we went back to the beach and rented more stuff. I was body boarding the whole time and I wasn’t able to stand up on the surfboard but I was able to stand up on the body board which was even harder. I was able to ride the body board as if I was surfing. Later that day we ate out in town at a pizza place. I also almost forgot to tell you the Evan H, Steven, Evan A, and I all got a room to our selves, it had 2 king sized beds and a TV and a lot of other nice stuff, we got the nicest room.
The next morning we went back to San Jose and went back into town and bought more souvenirs and food and enjoyed our last full day in Costa Rica. The next morning we ate more pastries and drove to the airport and flew back to America.
