Our rafting trip to in Costa Rica was by far my favorite part of the trip. We got picked up early in the morning by the rafting company to go to the river a couple hours away. We were fed breakfast, and applied lots of sunscreen. Each raft sat 6 comfortably, 3 on each side with a guide in the back. Big Jon took the right front and I took the left. I was the best spot to be in the front because the raft dipped into the huge rapids and the front got drenched. The scenery was beautiful with tons of wildlife around, including the Blue Morpho butterfly which is gorgeous. Also there were tons of natural waterfalls around, and incredible sights with the river flowing between the canyons. We got to swim around a lot, and one time got to jump in at the end of a class 2 rapid, where I got sucked under the rip current for about 10 seconds. It was really neat. By the time it was over everone was exhausted, and the trip back to San Jose was full of very tired and fufilled people.
