Cue the Jimi Hendrix ...






















... Waterfall! One of our nicest afternoons in Costa Rica was spent doing a bit of hiking and wading to see a pair of really beautiful waterfalls. It reminded me of hiking in Montana: there was the slightly rickety swaying bridge over the water, the slightly fraught path back to the second waterfall, the getting totally soaked taking pictures, and the sense of one's own smallness in the natural world. Also by the end my Keen sandals were quite clean, which was a refreshing change of pace. (I know: again with the shoes.) Only a couple of the students had the footwear to slog through the water, but they really loved the experience of being so close to the second waterfall.
