Tortuguero

Today we had an eventful day. We got up and decided to wait for the next bus to the boat to get to Tortuguero because it was storming. We saw all of Cairari and ate and then went for the bus. The one we expecting wasn't there but we took a different one which worked out fine. When we arrived, we headed for the hotel we had a reservation at. They then proceeded to tell us and several other couples that they were full and we would have to find another place which we soon discovered didn't exist. We ended up running into some girls we met in Quepos and they had 1 extra twin bed that we got to share. We have decided to go back to Orosi earlier than originally planned because of this. We did however get to see the sea turtles laying eggs which was really cool. They come onto the beach where they were born dig an enormous hole (they are 3-4 ft themselves) and go to laying about 100 eggs. They then cover the hole and return to the ocean. We got to see all from the laying of eggs. We got back to the room about 11:30.

Tomorrow I will have Internet to post to the blog and I will be back in Orosi for my final week of class.
