Day 13: Extremo Canopy

Extremo Canopying today. I put if off for two days and today has got to be the day, they already got my $40 and were leaving tomorrow. Included breakfast at 8:30 and at the last minute I hop the 10:30 to Extremo, and man I'm glad I did. Never had done anything like it before. 12 zip lines, a massive Tarzan swing, a decent size repel and the crowning on the cake the 1 km zip line over a valley will a tumbling stream at the bottom.

The finally! A 1 km long (.6 mile) superman style zip across a deep valley filled with a semi transparent rain cloud!
Heres a video from the companies web site to give you a full scale of this puppy - intense!

Some kind of fundraiser with these kids dancing down the street. Took a walk down to check it out after canopy and chill out until Shawn returned from his own adventures for the day.

Takin' it easy night. Not a ton to do in MonteVerde at night that we know about. Already went to the one main bar/disco/pool hall two nights in a row and really shouldn't drink any alcohol while taking this antibiotics anyway. Got to be up early - 5:20 or so to make sure we get a ticket for the 6:30 bus out down to San Jose. If we miss it then only one other bus for the day 3:00p.m. Couple days down in San Jose (capital) region, and looking to make a booking reservation to do a 2 day hike up the highest peak in Costa Rica! Then on to the Caribbean.

Spent a good couple hours again today looking for the cheapest ways to south america...
