I went on a walking tour of a nearby town called Tempate. It still has some examples of wooden homes and structures that are about 100 years old.

My first mini hanging bridge.

Having worked on many farms, I can appreciate this version of tool storage/organization.

Cooking with wood.

A more tropical version of a community garden. Corn and papayas growing together with bananas on the far side!

A dragon fruit (pitahaya) farm with the Costa Rican flag flying high.

I can’t get over the color of this pitahaya juice!

We visited a small organic farm. I was in heaven and felt like I was meeting my people!

Epiphytes on the power lines!

The view from the ride home!
