Capuchin monkeys at Manwell Antonio National Park, Costa Rica

Spent the day at Manwell Antonio, a beautiful tropical forest national park, just south of Quepos. Quepos was a seedy dump, but when you drive up the hill to the park, there are very nice hotels and apartment. Almost too nice really...the place was chokker with tourists and the park overful.
This is obviously the mecca of coastal tourism of CR.

The last time we saw these curious monkeys was at Monte Verde, Costa Rica. They look like they are wearing a little hat.

The park beaches were gorgeous - white sand and coconuts, all natural and unspoilt, thank goodness. A kind chap gave me his two spent tickets for free!! That saved us 20US$. Yippee!
