Tortuguero Canals
Tortuguero Canals
We docked very early in the morning and were bused to our excursion boat  |
 |
As
we sailed down the canal, some wildlife was easy to spot |
|
 |
 |
Our
guide directed our attention to an alligator just below the water
line He is very well hidden |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
Touring
the canals is very popular and we
passed other docks |
|

Sloths
are native to Costa Rica, but are difficult to see in their
natural environment because they curl up into a furry ball |
