We also saw this Anol, it extends this flap to attract mates.

This is Arenal valcano, it erupted while we were there.

This is a quetzal... a famous bird of central america that people from all over the world travel to see. I took this pick right out side our house.

Today we hiked from Cerro de la Muerte back to our valley. It was about 11000 ft high and you can see the valley if you look at the farm grooves on the right...

This is the bridge we had to cross today to get to the place we were going...

A cool mountain biking trail we found in the middle of NOWHERE...

This is a waterfall that we found in a cave today...

This is the pool at Quepos... There was a sloth hanging in a tree right by the pool, but I didn't get a picture. :(

This is where we are living.

First day of research!

aThis is one of the patients we provided dental care for. We saw a total of 150 students from a High School in San Marcos, Nicaragua.

Best thing about Nicaragua is that you will never miss a world cup game, because all the public transportation plays the game!

First day in Nicaragua we walked into a group of howler monkeys
