Sad goodbyes and awesome hellos!

On a super sunny morning we prepared to say goodbye to Ingrid and her beautiful Finca Isla. 

It was emotional to leave this place where we felt so relaxed and made so many new friends.

Including Bonita, lovable and placid stray dog who helped us with left overs and came with us on river walks.

Throughout our 10 days we had heard the toucans but never seen them close by. They came out to say farewell this morning, a fantastic sight!

Our first bus to Quesada cost a whopping £2.70 for the four of us. Next was a long and winding two hour ride costing £10!! The scenery was great but not all of us enjoyed it, Elliot was a little ill.

After afew minor problems in Alajuela and thanks to some friendly locals, we were back on the last bus of the day, a shocking £4.00! We hopped off in the middle of nowhere and followed the directions down hill to this.........

Once again the Stevensons are overwhelmed! The Treehouse is surrounded by mountain views and nature. We arrived just before sunset.

Elliot off to see chickens and goats.

Lower living level complete with kitchen, table and chairs, shower, sofa and beds.

There's an oven!!

Upper level, 3 more beds and awesome views. 

It's fab to think that all those months ago we were busy researching all these places online and now here we are. Even better that they have all exceeded our expectations. We are not worthy!
