Rainforest--get it, rain! We got soaked in the morning and again in the afternoon. When we started the ecological area land tour in Costa Rica it was sunny so most people left their raingear on the coach. Just about when we got to the furthest point, gushing down showers came. The ecologists offered two choices: they would take our two umbrellas and everyone's camera gear or everyone could run for the coach themselves. (We took a few cameras and kept our umbrellas.)We saw mighty venimous vipers, too close. Like, someone went right under a dead-looking vine where the eyelash viper the next person saw could have bitten the first guy on the neck. Also, when everyone was running for the coach and trying to avoid puddles by stepping to the side of the trail, we could have just as easily stepped within the strike of the Ferdinand de lance viper we spotted at the edge of the trail later in the day.I'm still spooked. Also cancelled a n Amazon cruise shortly thereafter.Pat
