Rafting el Rio Pacuare

 

 

 

A little bit of adventure on the water is ideal to balance the high temperatures and the stress of daily routine. Doing it on the Pacuare river…highly suggested! Also, if you are just happening on this page and looking for information, let me give the two thumbs up for the tiny company that organized our excursion…Rain Forest World (rforestw.com) is run by a big bellied friendly expat and a family of 8 local sibilings, and provides a familiar and cozy feeling (and excellent lunch). If you want undivided attention, choose them over the more commercial jumbo companies that will ship you on the water in groups of a dozen rafts at a time!

 

 

 

A nice little waterfall for a break from paddling

It always feels cool to be on top of waterfalls!

 

Our lunch spot.

 

 

I continue to be a sucker for pretty flowers…

 

Lunch! Special guests are the bowls of freshly made guacamole and of freshly made tuna salad... unbelievably good!

 

Men in the water!

And what is better than concluding the adventure with an “Imperial” (Costa Rican cheap beer)?
