Day 3 to Montverde

There is no road from Fortuna to Montverde. You take the jeep-boat-jeep or in our case (dry season) van-boat-van. The boat turned out to be a pontoon catemarran which was overloaded. The captains assistant once we were under way strategiaclly placed 2 towels to prevent water from coming into the passenger area. Fortunately the boat did not stray far from shore.



It's not a small lake, That's Mt Arenal in the left distance.

BC assessment: Winds calm, sea rippled, no ship wrecks.

None of the other boats were as full as ours but we had the best price!

'

68 People waiting to board vans. The best was yet to come. The roads are not paved. Picture 3 1/2 hours of first and second gear. Bill said "I could do 80 kph on my dual sport!"
