We were so unprepared and my son, at that point was less than a year, got really sick because we were supposed to be in tropical Costa Rica:) I know, plus, what shocked us most, was how cold it was!

The ultimate would have been to see a male quetzal, which has longer tail feathers. But we were very happy nonetheless. We saw hummingbirds too. no monkeys in Monteverde though. I can believe it was foggy. Our guide told us it rained there 8 days a week. : ) Hi Marina,

That's great. I know about how hard it is to see wildlife, I also believe it's because of the density of the jungle which makes it for the untrained eye to see everything. When we were in Monteverde, we mainly saw monkeys and hummingbirds, so it sounds like you got to see a lot more:) Plus, it was really foggy when we were there, hindering the visibility levels.
