Back home.

Well after 9 weeks, innumerable bus rides, and a 9 hour flight to Vancouver (not including the 7 hour layover in Phoenix!) I am finally back home. I can hardly believe I have been back for nearly a week! In my last week in Costa Rica Amy and I visited Montezuma where we saw some beautiful waterfalls, La Fortuna where we saw Arenal Volcano and went zip-lining, and then spent a couple of days in San Jose before heading back home last Sunday. 
I have only just started the daunting task of sorting through all of my photos from my trip, and I am in the midst of creating a slide show, that I will post here on this blog once it's finished. Until then here are some pictures from my last week in Costa Rica:

Awesome sign I saw on the ferry going to Puntarenas.

Ancient rock face at our hotel in Montezuma.

Montezuma beach.

White-faced monkeys on the beach in Montezuma.

Playa Grande, Montezuma.

Beautiful bird I saw on Playa Grande, Montezuma.

The balcony of our hotel in Montezuma.

Crazy man jumping headfirst off of the waterfall.

Amy taking in the view at the falls in Montezuma.

The first of three waterfalls in Montezuma.

Check back again over the next week for more pictures, and fingers-crossed I will finish the slide show this week. Plus, I have a couple of videos of Amy and I zip-lining in La Fortuna which I will be sure to post!

Take care,
Amira
