Sunday we went zip lining in Monteverde. It was amazing! They started off giving us directions on how to brake and what to do if you get stuck on the line--I ended up not having to do either of those things. There were 11 lines as part of the course with a Tarzan Swing halfway through. The Tarzan Swing involved jumping off a platform that was 60 feet off the ground and swinging from a rope attached to a tree. Everyone from our group was brave enough to do it--woo hoo! My favorite part of zip lining was starting in the forest and going through a huge break in the forest that was covered in clouds. I never thought a cloud could be so...wet.

Today we toured a couple of local farms--one larger one and a small, local one. It was interesting to compare the different operations and their impacts on the environment. We also toured the Monteverde Cheese Factory--I don't think I have ever had that many dairy products in one day. Delicioso.
