My grandaughter Cali with 2 month old Brisa Rell Hoy. Brisa was born in Costa Rica. Brisa means breeze and Rell is after Rell Sunn, a famous Hawaiian surfer.
This was a fabulous adventure. I highly recommend the Encanta La Vida where we stayed. It reminded me of the the safari camps in Africa. No TV, no hot water, lots of bugs, monkeys by the pool, howler monkeys in the trees, wonderful guests. There are no mosquitoes, thanks to the bats. There is nothing to be afraid of, its hot so you don’t need hot water, the bugs won’t hurt you, the monkeys won’t bother you, and you hardly notice the bats. Family style dining with incredible local food. Expect to see a Susan’s Store Room rainforest window soon.

This baby was dropped by a vulture, who had taken it out of a nest. Minor, the rescuer named him Tyson.

I just got back from the Rainforest in Costa Rica. While I was searching for rainforest animals to use in my upcoming rainforest window display I found this incrediable video for the Prince of Wales Rainforest organization.
