Costa Rica - Day 3

Today I was a little tired. I took in the nightlife so I didn't wake up until around noon. Too late for the breakfast but I wasn't hungry and I had a number of snacks to tide myself over till lunch.

The Hotel
The nice thing about where I was staying was that it was right in the heart of the city. I had everything at my fingertips. But I figured the first thing I should do was to go for a swim and just do some exercise.


The water was nice and warm and since there didn't seem to be a lot of swimmers while I was there I enjoyed the pool for myself for about an hour.

Lunch
For lunch I just took a stroll around and I decided to partake in some of the local foods. You will easily find chicken everywhere. They do fried chicken, an un-battered kind of "pop corn" chicken and pork rinds. All of which are very cheap. Wash it down with some of the water you bought earlier and you will have spent about $2 on lunch.

Zip-lining Tours
Today I decided to also go looking for tour guides for various things. In my initial post I put the location of one of them. I found the physical location of Rain Forest Adventures and purchased a ticket for a day zip-lining. It was about $85 for transportation, zip-lining over 15 lines and lunch.

Dinner
Exhausted I went to a local Chinese restaurant that I was never able to find again and had some good chicken, rice, a lot of veggies (I felt like I was lacking them in my diet), fries and a beverage for about $5.
