Road To Monteverde, From Lake Arenal
|
He watched a friend on a motorcycle drive off
|
A young girl watched the two vans drive past
|
After a while the mountains began to resemble hills
|
One of several farms for sale
|
The ride down was rough on a gravel road
|
A family followed the arrows uphill and to the right
|
The post office appeared to also be a liquor store
|
A rustic clothing store with a gravel parking lot
|
The trip began well up in the mountains
|
An odd way was discovered to electrify a fence
|
One van stopped to create a photo opportunity
|
A white-tailed kite swooped down and away from its perch
|
A somewhat old tin roof was spotted just off the road
|
A family returned home from a day's shopping adventure
|
The van next stopped at a coffee plantation
|
And before our eyes lay a classic coffee plantation
|
The red beans were the ripe ones
|
Nicaraguans spray the coffee plants
|
A motorcycle passes David who has wandered off
|
On the far valley wall, cows grazed
|
A truck was loaded with pesticides and poisons
|
The trip again ascended into the clouds, mountains and rain
|
Nearing town we passed a soccer field
|
And thence a welcome with offer of maps
