Day 6--Monteverde Cloud Forest

Today was another adventure. We went to the Monteverde Cloud Forest. We hiked out to "The Window", in which we were to see the Continental Divide...well, we went there, but the clouds prevented us from seeing anything. (I guess that is why it is called the "Cloud Forest".) Then we hiked over the "Hanging Bridge". It was all very beautiful--lots of forests and plants. We didn't see very many animals--some of that was probably because we did this on our own without a guide. Bob saw a coati, we think.

 Then we stopped at the dairy/cheese factory--they were not making cheese when we were there. We really just went for the ice cream, which was okay. Then it was time to drive to Areanal. Again, it was not the best roads, and took about 3 1/2 hours to go to 60 miles!

We made it to our "house" for the next few days. Beautiful view from the house. We had an early dinner/late lunch, since we hadn't really had anything all day to eat except for ice cream. Then we relaxed by playing some cards.
