Monteverde to Herradura, Costa Rica
Today we visited a butterfly and insect center. Most impressive were the insects, including this tarantulaand a huge elephant beetle. This one was about 4 inches long, with a very interesting "face".We also saw a whip spider, just like the one that the Madeye Moody imposter enchanted in “The Goblet of Fire”. Here is a sampling of the butterflies,including this one that is bright blue on the top of its wings.We later saw a similar one in the wild and its languid flight made it look as though someone was dangling it from a string. Then we drove to Herradura to board the Sea Voyager.
