Bike rides in Costa Rica
I love to ride my blue cruiser bike in Costa Rica.
The road to Puerto Viejo is very flat; I learned to ride with no hands.
My favorite treat is coconut ice cream dipped in chocolate from the MegaSuper in town.
On Monday we saw a three-toed sloth with a baby on her back.The baby sloth was the cutest thing I've seen in Costa Rica.

Riding my bike is a exotic tropical adventure.

When we saw the sloth, we were biking to town. I didn't have my phone with me. Of course this is when you always see a sloth-it's when you don't have your phone. So there's about 10 people all standing there with their phones taking a picture of the sloth. There's a German guy who has a digital SLR camera with (no kidding) a telephoto lens looks like a cannon. It's probably 10 inch diameter and 30 inches long. He's taking 20 pictures per second. Costa Rican surfer dude with curly hair and no shirt on comes and stands right in front of the whole crowd goes 6in away from the sloth and takes a picture with his phone. The German guy starts mocking him out. He says are you going to take him home? Do you want to keep him as a pet! The Costa Rican guy says oh you speaking engrish to me. They almost come to blows. When the Costa Rican guy left, I asked the German guy if he would send me a picture, which he kindly did.
