365 Blog Challenge: Post #87
Getting back on track after a few busy (and fun!) days, here are our pics from Puerto Limon, Costa Rica. We booked a white water rafting excursion here, and the river was about an hour from port so we got to see a lot of the country side/agriculture of Costa Rica. We saw banana plantains, cows, horses, goats, bulls, a pineapple farm. This was Scott's favorite place. After doing the first two rapids of the river, we even were startled by a cow drinking from el Rio de Reventazon about 10 feet away from us! Talk about surreal.

| Banana plantation. The blue bags are around the banana bunches to signal to the airplanes that fertilize the fields that they no longer need fertilizer are are just about ready to be picked. The bags also increase the humidity for the plant which apparently is a good thing. |

| Gorgeous Costa Rica. |

| Our rafting river! El Rio de Reventazon meaning River of Disruption or Rupture. It was just a category 2 (out of 6). Next time we'll go for a 3 or a 4. :) |

| In Costa Rica, they bury the dead above ground because they get so much rain. |
 |
| Costa Rican lunch! It was delicious! Chicken, rice and beans, salads, pasta, fried yuca and fried plantains and Scott's favorite coconut balls which were balls of coconut in a soft sweet batter. |
 |
| Pineapple Fields! These pineapple may be used in Dani's Gerber baby food. |
