Images from Central America

Here are a few pictures from our trip to Central America last month. (I ended up with around 1,000 pictures, so it took me a little while to sort through them all!).

This is the small plane we took from the airport to the lodge where we stayed. The flight was about 30 minutes, which gave us a chance to see the jungle from the air. I love the palm trees painted on the tail!


The view from the plane:













The absolutely delicious lunch we ate nearly every day we were there: stewed chicken with
beans and rice, coleslaw, plantains, and Coke Light. Yum!




A howler monkey having figs for breakfast. We watched him for probably 5 minutes as he moseyed his way through the canopy of these trees, munching on figs as he went.

We had a great time and saw a wide variety of wildlife, from birds to monkeys to tarantulas!
