jenNYC > White Water Kayaking
jenNYC > The waterfalls at Montezuma. A great mixture of tourists and locals hanging out. Considering that everyone is dreadlocked and baked brown from the sun, it's a bit hard to tell the difference between the two. It was mostly the locals though who fearlessly jumped from the rocks into the deep pool below.

jenNYC > Ziplining in Monteverde - Highly Recommended! That's Andrew swinging through the cloud forest. The zipline cables extend above and through the cloudforest canopy. We went on 11 lines total.
jenNYC > Champagne BeachThe second snorkel spot is at Champagne Beach. The name "Champagne Beach" derives from a sub-aquatic hot spring which causes tiny streams of sulfur bubbles to rise from cracks in the rock floor. The beach itself is covered with rocks and large pebbles, not so easy to walk on. We enter with our gear at the middle of the beach and snorkel around. No bubbles. No fish. Nothing. Andrew calls to someone on the beach "Where are the bubbles?". No response. Then we notice a tour guide leading a couple to rocky spot on the very far end of the beach. We follow them along the shore and suddenly...bubbles everywhere. The sight and sensation is unreal, it really does feel and look like swimming in champagne bubbles. The aquatic life around the sulfur bubbles is strange and amazing - multi color fish, strange anenomes, and big puffy sponges. A school of barracuda circles us and decides we aren't tasty enough for further interest. NOTE: photo taken from A Viritual Dominica
jenNYC > Day 3 (continued)The Boiling Lake The last leg to the Boiling Lake takes less than 30 minutes, but the trail becomes an unmarked rocky scramble up a narrow dry riverbed. I stumble up the riverbed, exhausted and hungry.
jenNYC > After following driving directions that are to remain secret (hush! hush!), we find the trail at the top of a cliff and begin our hike down the cliff. The trail becomes muddier and steeper as we descend, until it is obvious that we can no longer proceed by foot. A thick rope is tied to a nearby tree branch, dangling down a steep incline. This is the only way down. The rest of the hike consists of rappelling down the muddy cliff, climbing along the rock face with the rope as a support, and crawling through the vertical tangle of slippery vines and tree roots. It is slow-going and by the end, we are smeared with mud. However, the reward is fantastic.
