Had a long day. Super tired, and tomorrow´s going to be even rougher. Have to be at the bus station at 6 for 5 hours of driving. Then when we get there, we have to wade a river and walk a mile, and it´s going to be hotter than hell. I just really hope I don´t pass out.
Today I went with two other people (a guy from Australia and a girl from Seattle) to see Volcan Poas, which has the second biggest crater in the world (about 1 km). It was pretty neat. Then we went to this zoo type thing, but it was kind of classy and really well put together. We saw all sorts of birds (toucans and parrots and macaws), butterflies, frogs, snakes (big snakes), sloths (!!!) they were sleeping and cuddling together, ocelots, janguars, pumas and some other stuff. Everything there is native to Costa Rica so that was cool. A big part of going there is to see the waterfall, but we ran out of time so we didn´t get to see it. We heard it though. I guess it´s actually kind of a hard hike to get there and back so I´m kinda glad we didn´t go.
After dinner we were able to go out dancing and to a casino but I am so g.d. tired I couldn´t do it. That, and I´m getting up at 5 and it´s a definite no. I got my fill of gambling from the cruise so I´m fine with it.
I honestly don´t know when I´ll be able to get back on. Could be quite a while. And when I do I´m sure I´ll be as red as a lobster.
