Tortuguero

Tortuguero is a national park located in the north of Costa Rica

on the caribean side, it´s sorrounded by natural water channels

that goes in to the rain forrest, the only way to get there is by small

air taxis, that land on a small field, or by a boat trip from Limón. It´s

a 4 hours trip. Once you get there there is no way out, you must wait

for the next day to get a flight.

The nearest road is about 150 miles from Tortuguero.
The gaitors are allways waiting for some turist to take a swim.
Here is a little one, but I still don´t want to touch him...!
Man eating spider.
That is the "spider monkey". Looks like it when he is on trees.
