Night Walk

Yesterday we went hiking in the rainforest at night.  After they told us to watch out for pit vipers, the second most poisonous snake in Costa Rica, I got a little scared.  Once we got in the forest, I saw some animals and insects I had never seen before in the wild.  I saw a tarantula, giant crickets, and we actually did see a pit viper.  We also saw lots of big spiders.  They were everywhere.  There was also a giant ant hill. It might have been hundreds times bigger than any I had ever seen before.100_6033

There is a picture of part of the ant hill.  It is dark, but you can still see all the ants.

The night walk might have been really, really creepy, but it was still really, really cool.
