<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe arrived at Si Como No a resort set amongst the rain forest over looking the Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The balcony had limited views of a car and trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The staff here were very accommodating and moved us to another room, higher up and with magnificent views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following morning at 7.20am we started a half day group excursion to Manuel Antonio National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This leisurely hike took us through the tropical rain forest in one of the national treasures of Costa Rica. The abundance of wildlife was everywhere! Here we saw sloths, iguanas, various birds, other animals and insects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As you break out of the rain forest you emerge onto a white sandy beach overlooking the pacific ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Manuel Antonio was relaxing, very hot and humid, but full of colour and natural beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Opposite the hotel was a small wildlife and butterfly enclosure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following day we went on a boat tour of the mangroves to Damas Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More wildlife, birds and nature surrounded us and the camera never stopped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When we finally left Si Como No resort the road journey was long and at one point very bumpy as we detoured avoiding demonstrators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
