Today was really fun! Ken came and picked us up this morning, and brought us to Rio Celeste. He and my mom hung out and played a million games of cribbage, while Laenea and I did the hike to see where the water turns blue. Unfortunately, the river wasn't as blue as it is some days, but it was still a gorgeous place!
We hiked through the rain forest, and guess what- it rained. Hard. And the lightening looked like it was really close. But it was still really fun! Here's what Laenea and I saw.

| This was the end of the trail. The water here can be crazy blue! But the rain was making it more green-is |

| Part of the trail. Before it became ankle-deep mud. :) |

| See the bubbles towards the lower left? Hot springs! |

| Scary bridge |

After the hike, we stopped at Finca Verde for a nature tour of the rain forest there. We saw a sloth, some adorable tent bats, butterflies, a toucan, and a beautifully colored frog. That's all I have for today! We're probably going to a safari tour tomorrow. I might get to pet a giraffe? |

The guide said if you touch this caterpillar, it would be like
touching a tiny porcupine. Ouch!
