What a warm and wonderful evening.
The next morning, we packed up Ethan (our SUV) and headed to
Arenal to meet up with Alex, Alexis and their kids to spend a few days by the
volcano. We had waffled for a day or two about whether or not to take the trip
– Hurricane Otto was on its way. Sadly, it hit a couple of hours north of the
volcano and caused a lot of damage to that community. But where we were, it was
mainly clear skies.
The gang trouped up Cerro Chato. Alexis hurtled up the
slopes like a mountain goat on steroids while the rest of us hiked like
beleaguered buffalo wallowing in the mud. The gang got bloodied and muddied
while Ilana, with her sprained ankle, had her cuticles shined and dined on bonbons
at the thermal spa. The hot springs were
idyllic, except that she almost accidentally got into a natural spring with
this caiman…. That would have been quite a story.
