Day Three began with breakfast, oddly enough, and we brought the camera to get a picture of the owl-man. We'll share our photos as soon as we get back. Right after breakfast and the owl-man's close-up, we hopped in a van on the way to our first zipline tour. We were teamed up with a pair of large, middle-aged gay men (also from Atlanta), and an older woman who flew solo because her girlfriend was too afraid of heights.
The ziplines were a lot of fun, but we're just considering them a warm-up for the crazy all-day zipline adventure that awaits us in Arenal. Rachel was very brave, and the zipline boys seemed to fancy her, so she flew "superwoman"-style, and upside down with them. A couple of the lines were very long and fast, and we look forward to jungling it up in the coming days.
Right now we're in the lobby of the Riu. We just checked out and we're waiting for our car to pick us up, but it's been pouring rain all morning--actually, not ALL morning: it waited for us to be kayaking in ocean near a craggy cliffside. I hear that the trip to Arenal is long and bumpy and winding, something like four hours, so I'm sure with the gravel roads, mountainous landscape, and pour drainage we're in for quite an adventure this morning.
