We're back.
Costa Rica reminds me of an over-saturated photo. The brightness of the flowers, the contrast of the clouds & the sky, the lush green forests, the amazing animals. It's all a bit overwhelming for the senses at times, so beautiful that it almost takes your breath away.
I'm a little overwhelmed by over 1,300 photos (after deleting on-camera during our trip) that I really, really love. I tried to pick one favorite to post, but my "flagged" photos in iPhoto shot up above 50 in about 3 minutes. I'm not boasting. It's just a really beautiful country.
I like this black & white. It's straight off my camera, & I really love it, even though you can't see how green the trees, blue the water & white the clouds were. Playa Hermosa. One of the most amazing beaches I've ever been to, not because the water was so amazing (I wouldn't know - the waves were huge & the rip tide swift I'm sure - even the surfers were inside), but because I just wanted to sit there & stare at it all day long.
We got off the subway at 77th Street this afternoon with our suitcases & sunburns. I said Welcome home, Mike. His response? But it's not the jungle.
I agree. It's not the Costa Rican jungle full of monkeys, sloths, snakes & birds. I really, really loved the lush variety, but I like our concrete jungle, too.
