Ty- Friday we went to the Cahuita National Park to observe all the wild life that they have in the park. Before we even got started on the trail we saw a snake on the roof of the bathroom. To get an up close view of everything we saw our tour guides had a telescope that they would set up, and with this we could see very clearly what we were looking at. Once we started the trail we saw two different kinds of monkeys- howler and white-faced. Our guides were very helpful finding the animals and even found a baby monkey in the trees!! Along with the monkeys, we also saw sloths on our walk. We saw both two toed and three toed sloths. They were very hard to see because they blend in with nature. After our walk we went to the beach for a couple hours which was a lot of fun, but many of us came back with a little sunburn.
At the end of the night when we were coming back from dinner Ernesto (the bus driver) slammed on the brakes and our guide told us all to get out of the bus. When we got out we looked in front of the bus and we saw a sloth crossing the road on a power line. We were less than 10 feet from it taking pictures! In the evening we did an amphibian tour looking for frogs and snakes. We saw both and got some awesome pictures!
