2nd day in Paradise

Today we hiked to another paradise beach, Punta Mona, and back. We walked parallel to the beach through the jungle, which was very exciting and interesting with the different animal sounds. We didn't know if it was a bird or monkeys, really funny. The trails became narrower and there weren't many people around, we felt like we were alone in the jungle. Brilliant.

At some point, we ended up in an organic farm where there were different fruits on the tree and herbs in the garden. The water apple (looks like a pear) tasted incredibly sweet, like a flower, and juicy. Then a star fruit, very fruity. From the herbs, we tried the Moringo plant, which is supposed to be a superfood and provides a lot of energy. We all tried it and tolerated it well so far 😁 One herb tasted like garlic and chives at the same time. Anyway, we were now well fortified for the return trip because we had to hurry as it was already afternoon and gets dark quickly.

We ate fruits all day and didn't get hungry. You really don't need much.

Black beans and rice are a typical local dish and taste extremely delicious. In any case, Costa Rica is very expensive and the food costs as much as in Germany. We save money by skipping a meal or sharing a dish. A cooked meal a day is enough. And some fruits, not to forget cookies. You can always eat those.

My credit card is working again. The problem was, I can only withdraw cash with my card from 100 €, at 50 € there was an error message. It worked for Oli. You wouldn't think of that. Lol

 We really liked the accommodation. It is very family-friendly and the landlady even spoke German. It is quiet, just right for us.
