Well, start a new journey, you finally touched me after so many years, since
Before the pandemic, I didn't make a trip that many hours by plane, crossing the Atlantic Ocean, or even a small island.
The charco in this case, is that he came to Costa Rica, a country that had, led many
Years wanting to visit, it's a country of these paradisiacs, tropical areas of Central America,
If you are a lover of nature, of the fauna, this is the ideal place.
And, as I'm speaking in plural, I'm not going to make this trip alone, but I'm going to do it
With an old acquaintance, that old man does not go with disqualification, but goes with love,
And that's what he did with him, well, he did excursions, but above all, you'll remember him
If you follow my channel for last year's trip to Norway, it's none other than Alex,
I'm going to go to the train station, and I'll be there.
That's what I have today, that I don't know, that we came here in the heat and we have spent fresquete
But good, but with wins, right?
You see, the first thing we encounter is a new kind of...
This little garden, it's wonderful, so many, many wins.
The idea we had when we came to Costa Rica was heat, humidity, and for the moment nothing,
O sea, after all Costa Rica is a purely green country, que bueno, y puramente, y pura vida,
I think we're gonna hear it everywhere, even in the sewers.
Putting life into practice is the motto of the country, of everything is nature, fauna, etc.
He said, well, yesterday, to make a very quick summary, the day of yesterday we left Madrid,
From the airport of T4S, the satellite of Barajas, we were in the VIP room, which I left a little
Video of the summary of what, if you're interested, you're curious about how the VIP room is there,
And nothing, we took a flight with Iberia, which was 11 hours, a direct flight to San José,
Costa Rica, and the truth is that super fine, o sea, es largo, son muchas horas, pero fue super bien,
We were, well, we were entertaining ourselves, watching a lot of movies,
The flight is very good, the food is normal, as is on these flights,
And the problem is that we arrive early, even, we arrive at 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
I arrived here at 6:00 last night. The problem is that it took us a long time to check the passports.
Well, it was like a half hour like this, because there were several flights that had to pass.
The control, we had to rent the car, because, well, credit cards didn't accept them,
Well, a little bit of the hostility, we finally got to rent the car, and what we did was do
An hour till we are where we are now, that's what I was saying, that it's cold, now we'll be a
We slept with quite a cold, but we arrived at night at our hotel.
First day, it's here, next to the Poas volcano, which is the first point we're going to visit in the
I mean, we're at a fairly high altitude, so we're at about 2,000 meters, give or take.
Because the temperature is quite low, so the night has been about 10 degrees, that when we sleep we
They put a very finished blanket on, and then it gets a little cold.
Hotel del viaje, let's get something here, they have the kitchen half open, we don't have much
I'm hungry from all over the plane and all, but well, we asked to pick something so typical, because they had potatoes
Frites and tal, because we went with the Pisacón, which at the end is ripe banana, fried, and
It's got crushed beans, with a mass of beans and cheese on top, and, well, no, it's a local cervecita.
We've carried you, we've carried you, we've cost you nothing more right now, this, and rest,
We'll see if we can get rid of the jet lag, and if not, we'll go, we'll improvise tomorrow.
That's what I'm saying.
But very well, we have woken up and the views are very cool, you can see the whole area of the surrounding mountain,
The little garden we have right outside the hotel, and we're doing that, we woke up with jet lag and stuff,
We must have slept for four or five hours, and depending on the morning, we came to walk around the garden.
I'll talk about it later, but it's going to be a little late.
We're gonna take a walk around the little garden, have something quick to eat, and then we're going over there.
So nothing, I'll show you the garden, I don't know if we'll see any little animals anymore, by here little thing, some little bird and so on,
But, well, I'm sure during the trip, we'll find things.
I think I'm lost, here among all the vegetation, and I don't know where Alex is.
Alex, no answer, it's interesting, the subject is interesting.
I don't see much bugs around here right now, I don't know if that's good news or bad news.
And as something unexpected, apart from the little garden we had next to the hotel, there's a little path,
You can go down all the way to the forest, which I was teaching you, and there's a little river at the end.
But, well, I'm sure in a week, this won't seem like anything.
But as soon as I first met him, and as something unexpected, it was very cool, there was no one upstairs.
It's that cute, isn't it?
Exactly unexpected, plus there's all this stuff, and there's more jungle, and shit, to start warming up engines.
We've just arrived at the first point so important that we had for the day, which is the Poas volcano,
As I mentioned before, because it's very close to the hotel where we stayed last night,
It's one of the most famous volcanoes in Costa Rica, not the biggest, not the tallest,
There are others like El Turrialba or El Idazú that are at a higher altitude,
But this one is special, well, because it's very close to San José, it's like an hour and a half,
So it's very good as a day tour, because it's a good option to see a volcano if you can't go to the others,
And what's spectacular about it is that it has a crater, in fact it's an active volcano,
It has erupted quite a few times throughout history, and in fact the most recent ones are only four or five years old,
Well, there's a risk, I recommend the web that I leave you here below that you reserve there,
Because we have to book by the hour, we came at the first hour, from 8 to 9,
And then you reserve and there's a coupo, so it's good that you take it in advance,
That's usually exhausting, but it's better if you take it with a day or two in advance just in case,
The truth is it's spectacular to see the crater with what it is the lake with the sulfur and everything,
It has different tones depending on the day, the sun, etc.
The two types of volcanoes are known as the "Palestine Volcanoes" and the "Palestine Volcanoes".
Like these places here that are concrete, so well, if you have the bad luck,
It can be a good area to protect yourself, because this volcano is about 2,600 meters above sea level,
But the height of the mountain itself is about 1,800 meters.
The only thing that's related to the crater are those viewpoints where we've been, which are on different levels,
And what we've come to now is a path that's there, which is a route of about 2 kilometers plus or minus,
Until reaching a tiny lagoon with rainwater, without being able to get so close to the crater,
That's what I thought we were gonna be able to do, a closer tour, because it's not such an essential place.
If you're near San José, you're close, because you might be worth getting close to.
But I think with the cost it has, the 15 dollars of admission per person plus the parking,
There are about 3,000 colonists, but then there's only one viewpoint, so well, if you don't have that much time,
It's a place you can do without.
And at about 750 meters, from what are the crater's viewpoints, you reach a rain lagoon that's on the other side,
And the truth is that it's very pretty, it's quite big, and it's a shame you can't get very close,
Because this whole area has enough danger of detachments, etc.,
Then, but from here, from the mirador, the truth is that it looks super super cute,
And you're making us a spectacular day now, because you can find yourself all this clouded,
Well, at least that's what we're getting.
Now what awaits us is a trip of about 3 hours by car,
Or sea, we'll do quite a few hours of driving along the journey,
And we're going to go to the eastern part of the country, to Costa Rica, to the east coast,
towards the area known as Tortuguero, which sounds like you,
Because it's one of the most well-known areas for a subject I'll talk about later,
But first we have those three hours, so, little by little.
It's a crazy size here of the vegetation, I don't know if you get the idea,
The same in camera you don't see much, but the size of the plants are giant,
It looks like Jurassic Park at times, it seems like you're going to get a dipsodoc,
Something like this, inside the branches, is impressive, we haven't seen much wildlife yet,
The hotel where we stayed this morning, this evening, told us there was a tapir.
We haven't seen him, I heard him this morning.
Here's the car we rented for these days, it's a Hyundai Creta,
It's not a 4x4, like I said, but good, it's a SUV, a minivan,
The sea is great, so for the journey we're going to make,
I hope it's more than enough, here we have our stewardess, Alexa,
It shows us the newly upholstered interiors, all first-class,
Everything is perfect, precious, and good, and very good.
Except that, it cost us to rent it, or sea, be careful with the credit card stuff,
See that it works well abroad, that you don't put money in your bank and stuff,
And that, and to drive, for the moment, the experience we've been driving,
It was from the San José airport to the hotel and then here.
It's going to be a country with lots of curves running through the mountains,
Then it's best that you go with tranquility, for the moment very well paved,
But that, you're gonna use many short marches, at night, for example, when we come,
There was a lot of fog, so it was also more complicated by the visibility issue,
But, well, going slowly, you won't have a problem.
