Our Top 10 From the EastRidge Trip in April

With a country filled with so many top 10's I have to say the EastRidge Itin has some of the best of the best. Here is a list of the top 10 events of your itin that should get you all excited:

10. Jheudy & Johnathan - 2 guides with many years of experience and love what they do. You will have a chance to learn so much with these two guides and please take advantage of it and ask lots of questions.

9. The second to last Zipline. There ae 8 different cables we will be on but the second to last is amazing. It is not only the longest but you go through almost a tunnel like part of trees that really give you and idea of how fast you are going.

8. The chips at the Organic farm - in my opinion the whole lunch is amazing but the best part are the homemade trips which almost everyone is going back for seconds.

7. The pool at Casa Turire - This is the hotel we will be staying at after river rafting and it is small and I know you will enjoy it. They have a small pool but just a great environment and a chance to relax before we continue our adventure.

6. Marimba - This is an instrument that we hope to have played for you during your trip. It is very Costa Rican and has quite the catchy beat to it.

5. The Hike to the Cave - You might be wondering how this made it to the to 10 because it is probably the part of this trip everyone will be giving me a serious look. The hike made the top 10 because after it is done everyone always says how much it was "worth the hike".

4. Bombas!!!! - Do not forget the Bombas. This is a Costa Rican tradition used throughout the country as a form of getting a party started. Basically it is a short rhyme often ending with a short joke. Very entertaining and can be done in English.

3. Salsa Lizanos - This is the best tasting stuff around. It is a salsa that is not spicey but just right.

2. People of Costa Rica - If we are at our homestays, orphanage, or visiting a school we will see smiles and enjoy being in the presence of people such "Pura Vida"!

1. Trits (Ice Cream Sandwich) - Yes, this is my number 1. We will assign a person on each bus to remind us to stop for trits. Dont worry we will be doing plenty of excercise to burn it off so prepare yourself for the best tasting IceCream Sandwich ever.
