After a long navigation from Panama, we finally made it to Costa Rica. In our first day we first visited a botanical garden home to more flowers, plants and birds than one could ever hope to capture with a camera. In the afternoon we participated in a new activity: We got to see how scientist gather data out of the sea turtles, and afterward we watched the sea turtles return to the sea.
