Today, my friends and I hiked all the way from Quepos to Playa Biesanz through the jungle and all the deserted beaches along the way (except for the private hotel beach where we walked on wearing our bamboo cone hats). We saw all three types of monkeys, got charged at by a bull, found our way out of the jungle in the last light of the day, swam under the moon, and hitchhiked home. Awesome day.

| Howler Monkeys - a whole family with babies on their bellies :] Super Rare Find |
 |
| I didn't take this pic - it is from the internet - but it is of the adorable Titi Monkey, which we also saw. |
 |
| This Scary Capuchin monkey defending his turf…from us. Then they started throwing things at us... |
 |
| One of the many beautiful beaches we had to ourselves |
 |
| This is the cow (bull? - it had hornes) that blocked our path and charged us when we tried to pass. Good thing we were cow whisperers. |
 |
| The trail was rough on Amanda's shoes... which both ended up sole-less by the end. |
 |
| Far in the distance you can see the strip of land that is the Quepos Marina. We started before that. |
 |
| The bamboo pope hats we sported onto the private hotel beach |
 |
| Made it out of the Jungle just in time |
 |
| This shows the route we took from Quepos to Playa Biesanz - the part it doesn't show is how many times we went down to the beach and all the way up into the high jungle again. There was a lot of very quick elevation gain to say the least. |
Beautiful sunset! How did you finally get by the cow and monkey?
