It may have been premature to do my Verdict two days before leaving the country, but hey, its a year of doing whatever I want eh? Yesterday I went rafting on the Pascua section of the Reventazon river. This is the biggest section they have in the country and it was a real blast, but I kept thinking how much these guides would sh*t themselves if they saw the Umko in flood!
Today I'm just chilling at the backpackers in San Jose before I fly tonight to Honduras. I got an email from the Swedish girls I went to La Fortuna with to say they're going to be on Utila later this week too. Will be nice to see some familiar faces but I'm sure I'll meet lots of new people before they arrive. I'm looking forward to some English speaking - even if it is Creole.
Thought I'd also give you a glimpse into the world of Costa Rican Roulette (otherwise known as taking a shower!). The showers here heat the water in the nozzle, thus exposing live wires all over the place! And to think we don't even see light switches inside the bathrooms at home.
The ablutions here have also been interesting. While most loos are flushing, they can't take toilet paper so it has to be put in a bin next to the loo. Yay for Cherry Blossom toilet spray!
On to the Bay Islands then...
