The world's most beautiful waterfall (And: more monkeys!)


What an amazing afternoon Michael and I spent today! His host father (Papa Tico) invited us to his family's farm, for a hike to a waterfall. Most of his extended family lives there. Only a few minutes into the hike, we saw several white-faced monkeys very close to us! The hike led us to the most beautiful waterfall I've ever seen.

Michael and Miguel (his Papa Tico) swam at the bottom of it. (The water was freezing, and it was already raining out, so I happily stayed on the rocks to take pictures.)
On the way back, we saw an incredibly beautiful rainbow! We finished the afternoon having coffee and chatting with Miguel's extended family...really nice people and great practice.



Y en espanol:
Que magnifica tarde Michael y yo pasamos hoy! Su Papa Tica nos invitio a la finca de su familia, para dar un caminata a un catarata. La majoria de su familia vive alla. Solo algunos minutos despues de comenzar la caminata, vimos monos cara blancas, muy cerca de nosotros! El sendero nos dirigio a la cascata mas bonita que yo he visto. Muchael y Miguel- su Papa Tico- nadaron en el agua de baja. (Hacia frio, entonces yo me quede felizmente en las piedras para sacar fotos.) En el camino para regresar, vimos un arcoiris increible! Terminadamos la tarde tomar cafe y hablar con la familia de Miguel ...personas muy simpaticos y practica magnifica.
