Costa Rica January 5-10, 2009
We arrived a day early for our tour ofCosta Rica and Panama. Our hotel was the Casa Conde Apartotel & Suites. The next day we took some time to walk around San Jose, Costa Rica's capitol.
The Elderhostel tour (#9206) had 91 members, so we needed 2 buses to take us to INBio. "The National Biodiversity Institute (INBio) of Costa Rica is a private research and biodiversity management center, established in 1989 to support efforts to gather knowledge on the country’s biological diversity and promote its sustainable use. The institute works under the premise that the best way to conserve biodiversity is to study it, value it, and utilize the opportunities it offers to improve the quality of life of human beings." After a beautiful drive to the Pacific port of Los Suenos it was time to board our cruise ship.
