Today I found El Dorado...in the barn! Haha This morning Aliza, Kat, and I went on a 4 HOUR horseback riding tour in the mountainous rain forest...annd it was GREAT! It was most def my favorite activity I have done here in Costa Rica. We started at the Leaves and Lizards resort and rode to this hidden water fall through some forest areas and some open grass areas. At first I was under the impression that Dorado was just a theraputic horse for children to ride, but later on Debbie--one of the owners of Leaves and Lizards--told me that Dorado was a barrel racing horse..so I took advantage of that. As soon as my non-chalant attitude changed, Dorado became loads more spirited and even felt confident enough with me on him to run pretty fast and far in the open grass trails. It was unbelievably cool! I wish I had ridden everyday and could continue riding everyday..even though I'm super sore already, ha!
