OAT--the group that we do most of our travelling with is not known for staying in five star resorts. Especially on a trip called "Real Affordable Costa Rica" I wasn't expecting much when it came to our hotels. We covered a lot of ground--6 hotels in 12 days. Each one was nicer than the last. One was actually an adult sleep away camp, cabins and all. I wouldn't call it luxurious, but it was a beautiful camp. More on that in a later post...
...Anyway, I was more than shocked when we pulled up at our second rainforest resort...and got off the bus at the Chachagua Rainforest Resort. Both the rainforest and the resort are listed in the book, "1000 Places to See Before You Die".

Our OAT tour leaders keep surprising us and one afternoon our guide Erik, assisted by our driver put on a cooking class for us. We had previously purchased ingredients at local markets.
And...the results of our efforts...
Yummy before dinner snack with a guanabana martini! This was followed by a lovely sunset. Photos are a bit fuzzy, but I had a few drinks in me!
Oh yes...and the lost photo...don't know if this one is the one that Photoshop ate or the second best one that I found later. I am thinking of doing a small glass sculpture of trees, though I have to say my larger boro pieces have cracked. I am going to attempt, perhaps with some work with a new boro friend...
