Day 2 was our adventurous day.
We piled in the wagon bright and early and headed out on a 3.5 hr drive.
Our destination was the Arenal Volcano.
Around this area is lots to do and see.
After the long drive and having to stop often for those with small bladders and weak stomachs, we ended up at the zip-line first.
Zip-lining was fun. I didn't get that stomach drop, but when i looked down over the lush jungle, I did get a little nervous.
After zip-lining, we realized that we missed all the other times for other adventures.
We decided on going to the natural hot springs.
They were really cool, a little pricey, but cool.
We stopped off and ate at this little quaint restaurant and they had a bunch of these
raccoon things hanging around.
Here was a sign posted at the restaurant.
Awesome. The volcano has only been inactive for 18 months.

The next few days we pretty much lounged since none of us really wanted to get back in the car for more torturous driving.
We swam, surfed, drank more delicious tropical drinks (or at least i did) and just hung out.
And since I couldn't hide it any longer, we announced that baby #4 will be arriving Sept 2012!
On one of our last nights, the plan was to go out and try and find turtle hatchlings,
our plans were changed and we went to a local rodeo!
It was like no other rodeo I have been too.
We definitely experienced the culture here.
This cute girls were in a dance group and even preformed their dance for us.
Local food.
This is Jen and she could speak Espanol, which was very nice!
This man ran a dice game that was near impossible to win and actually we never won:(
And on our last day James, Aaron, Shay and I ending our trip with a nice beach front massage.
