Dec 3rd

Miles today: 0

Morning nature hike with Melissa our guide and several couples from Germany, Spain and France. Nice walk through the rain forest, checked out their farm potion of the property, saw some Howler monkeys.
Our hosts Nico and Kelly did a great job building a place for travelers. Slowly they are working towards a sustainable resort.

Breakfast, beautiful views, the volcano, like Denali, may or may not show herself today.
Bike repair day for Max. Starter intermediate gear is striped in a couple of places. Good news Jim finds all the broken teeth and they are not in the crankcase. Yeah.

About our lodging. This place is awesome. A variety of room options from wall tents to rooms with a private bath. A vegetarian restaurant with great food and awesome views. A fun part is every dinner the guest help prepare part of the meal. Tonight we had sushi. With all the ingredients laid out we gathered around the kitchen counter, then under the guidance of Christian, the chef, we built our own sushi rolls. It was really fun as we commented on each others abilities to lay out the vege's and rice. Once we finished our creations Christian cut them up and put them on a plate, we added ginger and wasabi. Once seated we were brought salads and afterwards desert. A fun night and my compliments to all the chefs.
Exchanged email addresses with various guest and employees.
Now off to talk to my lover.

Location:Essense Aernal, lay over day
