Friday was another great day in Costa Rica! We visited a very educational farm and learned a lot about sustainability practices in Costa Rica. After the tour we had a very peaceful lunch at the Farm, followed by an exhilarating hike down 500 stairs to swim in a waterfall, and then hike back up. Dinner was fun, especially with the company of our guide’s wife and daughter.
Our great guide, Greiven!
