Today we went to Selvatura Park which is a nature and adventure park in one of the reserves in Monteverde. We first visited the hummingbird garden to see all the birds whizzing around our heads, feeding from the nectar feeders.
We then did the two mile hike around the hanging bridges trail - we saw NO wildlife unfortunately but we enjoy the walk, being up in the treetops and enjoying the views.

Afterwards we did a tour of the butterfly garden. I was very surprised when this young lad, in his sneakers and baseball cap, was introduced as our guide but he really knew his stuff and we found the tour very interesting.

Today was our last full day in Costa Rica as we are spending most of tomorrow travelling to the airport with a flight back to the UK, via Madrid, in the afternoon. We have really enjoyed our holiday - we have seen so much and each place we have visited has given us a different experience.
As the Costa Ricans say PURA VIDA!
