A Peak at Paradise.....

.....well, you'd think it was Paradise! They say that Costa Rica has a thousand shades of green. I really don't think that is true. I'm sure it is more like ten thousand shades at least. The vegetation is so lush, so green, so colorful, so beautiful. Rain forests, volcanoes, waterfalls, pine forests, tropical flowers, tropical fruit crops, deserted beaches rimmed with palms, exotic birds and animals, all within a few hours drive in every direction. I'm sure I have a thousand photos that I need to wade through, but for now, here is just a sneak peak. This is the beach area near where we stayed for several nights.
