 Olivia and I were joined by Karen and her daughter Sarah from Pennsylvania and by our intern Alanna from Arizona and our Costa Rican wrangler, Eduardo. We had a fantastic trip! The first day was spent at the farm matching up the riders with their horses. On day 2 we started out from the farm high in the mountains. Over the course of the next 5 days we passed through a variety of ecosystems. We spent the nights and had our meals with wonderfully hospitable folks in their homes.  On day 6 we arrived at a comfortable beach front hotel on one of Costa Rica`s most beautiful Paficific coast beaches. Day 7 was spent riding the horses for miles along the deserted beach and then playing with them in the waves. This is our last trip of the season due to the arrival of the tropical rains. Our next trips will be starting up in December 2010.
