We watched an army of tiny Cutter Leaf Ants for over 30 minutes today. You can do that when you are retired! Back and forth, back and forth, they carried a burden seemingly too enormous to bear--they never gave up. This makes them a very worthy critter of the day. It was going to be a capuchin monkeys but they pee on their hands and feet to mark their territory and eat our compost. To be fair, I think Dad picks our meals based on what makes the best treats for the monkeys.
Up until now we have been in the cooler parts of Costa Rica. Now it is hot, hot, hot! With the heat we have slowed our pace. To cool down we float in the Pacific (300 metres from our Jungalow), read in the shade, or swing in the hammock wearing just our underwear. We also went for a drive in the 4x4 to catch a breeze and see a two hundred year old Strangler Fig. Of course, we had to stop occasionally to let the iguanas cross the road. I managed to buy antibiotic ear drops using only spanish (yes, there is infection in Paradise). At least I hope they are ear drops because I'm putting them in my ear. You are Always in my Prayers. Love Mom.
