It is raining today as it is wont to do in a rainforest. I'm hoping though that the rain slacks off. I have lounging to do and also, --this woman who is afraid of heights--will rappel from a waterfall this afternoon. Yesterday, on the four-hour drive from the airport to the hotel, I was charmed by the many watermelon stands on the side of the road. The country--this part so far--seems overrun by big Americans on spring break -- and lots and lots of loud children. I hope to do some real exploring this weekend. It is Easter weekend. I think the holiday will bring the real folks out.
