Today we finally made it to the Corcovado Park! It was a guided tour, which we ended up being grateful for, since he had a big telephoto lens to spot animals up on the trees...we saw a black hawk, a two-toed sloth, a couple of wild turkeys, a few spider monkeys, an iguana, a toucan, a woodpecker, and a crocodile! Also, we saw tapir footprints, and we smelled some pecari...haha couldn't find them though! I also learned that termites can be eaten in emergency situations, and they're 100% protein...organic protein, even! haha Also, we saw some poison ivy and some gigantic fig trees...and of course the crocodile was really interesting to look at!
The way there on the boat was pretty bumpy, but the way back was beautiful! The lunch was also great...I kinda regret not having been able to stay there overnight, but at the same time I am glad we got the guided tour!
Tomorrow we're leaving by boat (no need to hitchhike this time around!) but we have not made up on our minds yet on where we're going!
