One of the fun things about the vast amount of flora and fauna in Costa Rica were the Sensitive Plants all over the ground. I liked to call them the Scaredy Cat plant. These little bitty plants provided cheap entertainment for weary workers. On one of the last days at the camp, Dear Husband and I were checking out the trails that some of our group cleared out. We came across what we thought was a giant scaredy plant. With much excitement we got the phone out ready to document something amazing.

Mid week we celebrated Dear Husband’s birthday. His cabin mates found it a really good excuse to escape to the nearest little town, 2 miles away, for cerveza. I hear tell that the road to San Jose de la Montana was a very steep climb. Like, you were leaning way over and practically using your hands to climb up the road. Well, maybe not that bad but it sounded pretty intense. I didn’t want beer that bad.
Feliz cumpleaños querido esposo. Ustedes son la luz de mi vida.

WOW! That plant is amazing!!! And if it were my birthday, I would probably climb that hill for a nice celebratory drink too. 😉
