About 30 minutes later the clouds dissappeared enough for us to enjoy the lagoon that lies at the center of the volcano. The water is about 90F-100F, steaming, and sometimes bubling. It was an amazing sight to see! This is Poas Volcano!Here we are capturing the lagoon inside the volcano. We were so happy that the coulds separated long enough for us to enjoy the volcano!This is my mom, dad, and I at the Poas National Park! It was a great start to the day...
Up near Poas Volcano they have lots of vegetation and a unique plant that they call the "Poor Man's Umbrella", This is my parents posing under the umbrella!! After Poas Volcano, we continued to La Paz Waterfall Gardens. This is a neat park area with different animal exhibits and several waterfalls. We passed through exhibits of butterflies, hummingbirds, frogs, monkeys, and lots of others! Here are my parents near a fountain... So pretty!
We came upon an oxcart and decided to take a family photo! How crazy are we!? Inside the bird exhibit, my mom decided to pose in front of the Toucan... Do you see something in common? hahaha... it was a wonderful exhibit!! After visiting the aminals, we came down to the waterfalls. The largest waterfall in the area is known as La Paz Waterfall which crashes down about 230 feet. Here is a preview...This is what you have to do in the rainforest when you get thirsty... hehe!
The end of my parent's trip was incredible. They were able to see one of the more active volcanos, beautiful waterfalls, and also a coffee tour. Costa Rica is famous for their produce and coffee growing.
My parents had a wonderful time in Costa Rica and I am so happy that they came to visit! After they leave, I plan to continue with more adventures! More to come!
