Volcan Arenal & La Fortuna


PIGGIES at the open air market in La Fortuna. They're probably going to be slaughtered.

THE CUTEST LITTLE LAMBIES. also probably food.
fire dancers that we saw our first night in La Fortuna. incredible.


The cutest calf ever. I had a steak later that night.



wooo. fire people.


















Not gonna lie...I was kind of obsessed with her.

this turned me on a little

more awesome

city street in la fortuna during the rain

the bright magenta on these flowers is an evolutionary trait -- it deters bugs from eating them.this was on our volcano hike.

one of the ten most active volcanoes in the world -- volcan arenal

this, my friends, is sugar cane. we ate it later. also on the hike.

some weird plant on the hike. i don't remember why it was cool. LOOK AT IT!

some guy that's related to the raccoon

he's cute

epic nature hike by the volcano

ian, our hunky tour guide, cutting sugar cane for us to eat

eucalyptus! just like the ones around UCI. it reminds me of dancing with Lucy.

i can't believe i swam under this thing

liz and ian on the bridge

some cool rainforest flower with a cool story that i don't remember

hibiscus! and my hand

a chemical reaction that occurred after ian stuck his cigarette on the petals

the helix pattern of the leaf growth is an evolutionary advantage

A endemic plant native to the rain forest -- relative of ginger. smells AWESOME.

yeah, i swam in this. no big deal.
