Buenos Aires - Costa Rica that is :-) Today June 13, 2013 we had to meet a client in the beautiful Rio Celeste area of Rincon de La Vieja. The drive from Liberia is about 1.5 hours through Dos Rios and over to the Blue River Resort area via the highways. For us, since we were at our mountain cabina, the best and most fun way would be to take the back roads with our Suzuki Quad :-) Much more fun and exciting than the conventional route! The drive would take about 1.5 hours one way and, yes, the road went through Buenos Aires! A nice quaint little pueblo located behind Volcan Rincon de La Vieja. Rain was threatening so we packed our yellow rain suits and off we went. We drove through the most beautiful jungle trails, crossing at least 15 rivers and creeks with beautiful lush vegetation all along the way. One part of the trail I named Heliconia Way as there were a huge amount of these beautiful flowers along the way. We crossed the incredible Rio Celeste and met our client near Blue River Resort a short while later. She toured us around her beautiful properties
Bonanza and
De La Paz - great properties for those looking to get away from it all and enjoy nature. We live in these mountains and love everything about life in the back country - truly beautiful places but not for everyone. The weather is cooler, wetter and sometimes windy, but on good days there is no place more beautiful in the world!
We completed our tour of the properties, wished our client a safe trip home and off we went back down the jungle trail. We stopped at our favorite restaurant in Colonia Blanca for a cold cerveza and the best breaded tilapia in Costa Rica! After lunch, we continued on for the final 45 minute journey home and of course hit the afternoon rains. We quickly stopped, put on our rain gear and chugged along through the pouring rain to our warm and dry cabina! Just another adventure in paradise!
