Plants in JA

See those red and yellow plants? That's ginger. I found it in the 
cacha falling star gardens place.
This is a Yucca plant. You can't see them in this picture
but the Yucca plant has a defense which are little spikes.
They are all over the plant so don't touch it!



This is a cactus plant. Cacti usually grow in clumps very close 
together. Here cactus grow around trees.
This is a different type of cactus. It is not sharp at all and grows in 
strange shapes. In the upper left-hand corner  is a pink bloom.

This is a picture of shrimp dinner that we had a couple of nights ago. It had tomatoes, cucumbers, 3 different types of yam-and of course shrimp in a garlic butter sauce. These are guava jelly and peanut butter sandwiches with mango on  the side. This picture of Saul shows him eating an ackee and salt-fish loaf that   my dad  and I bought at the bak ery.

The national park only let us go to the foothills because the volcano is still semi-active, having had a big eruption 1968 and a smaller one in 2010. On the hike we saw lots of lizards. Most of them were about five inches long with a blue stripe down their backs but others were about 10 inches and brown with dark dots. On the hike there was also a massive Kapok tree that is 400 years old and so big that if there was a tunnel through it you could drive a car through if you wanted. The tree had very large buttresses. Buttresses help the tree stay standing in large storms. If I could return to the Arenal Volcano National park again, I would do the zip-line/canopy tour and climb th

This pool is special because  it has a waterfall and you can go behind it!    This is a picture of Saul and my dad swimming in the  cacha falling star gardens pool.
