COSTA RICA DAY 6
We spent day 6 traveling, we checked out of our hotel and started towards Manuel Antonio which is on the west coast. We stopped a couple times because it was quite a long trip. The second stop was at a bridge with huge crocodiles below it! And it was hot!!!! The first pictures are when we are leaving the hotel. One picture is of Range and a girl who came in the trip named Story. She was so cute! They are the same age. The roads are crazy scary! I don't know how more people don't get him by cars. They are very narrow with no shoulder. Nobody slows down when they pass pedestrians. Our bus driving made corner and turns I would be nervous to make it my car! And he was driving a "grey hound" type bus. Many roads are through mountain passages with very sharp turns and one lane bridges. The driving in Costa Rica really amazed me. Also one day while we were traveling somewhere traffic was stopped. The bus driving (who didn't speak any English) walked up to find out how long we would be stopped for. I was amazed at the details he got. A man had been hit by a car, he was drunk and walked right in front of the car. He died. In Costa Rica a judge has to come get their body. So the body lies in the road until the judge comes. I was just amazed at the information the bus driver was given. It seems in the U.S. everything is a secret, With 25 cops directing traffic. There were no cops at the accident, just people waiting for a judge.

The view of the crocodiles gave me the creeps. The bus ride sounds scary.
