I have to admit, I was not in charge of planning this trip and I do not remember the names of anything… so uhhh… here goes!
Arrived in Costa Rica pretty early in the day but had quite a lot of driving to do before the hotel. We stopped at the first roadside restaurant (and fruit stand) that met the resident cat requirement for tropical dining.
As expected, the food was amazing. The first taste of Costa Rican coffee was a little piece of heaven. And the fruit stand had something called mocos! Amazing and awful at once.
It was a long drive to the hotel, but I saw crocodiles in Jaco and chickens in some little restaurant along the side of the road.
It was still a long drive through the night. The hotel was located in the jungle, more or less, just north of Quepos. My first view of the place was this private swimming pool at night. And I woke to the sound of Toucans in the morning.
