Day 5+ half of 4

This is Liam. yesterday, we went on a night hike at Tirimbina, the lodge where we stayed. while we were crossing the (wobbly) bridge, two raccoons came barreling down the bridge, and bumbled almost right into us. also, there was a pit viper, a tarantula, giant flying cockroaches(!), and 3 wolf spiders. today, we saw the beautiful view off the bridge and we are in transit to our next hotel.

Still awesome,

Liam
