We started our second day at Manuel Antonio Park with a tasty breakfast of rice and beans, before we began trekking through the jungle. It was a hike unlike I anything I had ever experienced. It was akin to being in a botanical garden and a zoo, both at the same time. The the trees totally filled the canopy, making the trail through the jungle was very dark. It was a bit frustrating trying to take a photo because the light level was so low.
I took the photo below of the scariest looking tree I had ever seen. Its whole trunk was surrounded by very long, serious-looking thorns. I guess the tree didn’t want anything to climb it, and a suspect nothing did. As I said, it was very dark in the thick jungle and getting a good photo was difficult.
The photo at the very bottom of the page shows an intrepid explorer, pondering the jungle, before entering a trail.
