Friday 24th March

Moving on again today, heading to the Turrialba Valley, a rich agricultural area in the Central Highlands, about a 6 hour journey, which was broken up with a couple of stops, including our first sight of the Turrialba volcano, one of 5 active volcanoes in the country. We pulled over to photograph a 3 toed sloth, unfortunately the camera was playing up but we should get clearer pictures later in the trip! Guillermo had booked a traditional CR restaurant for lunch, rice and beans with a choice of meats or vegetables and guava juice from the restaurant’s garden, the views from the restaurant were amazing and as we had made good time on our earlier drive we had plenty of time to soak up the views and wander around the beautiful garden. We had been told that this place produced amazing ‘postres’ and most of us were tempted, our table of 8 decided to each choose a different dessert and to share, the selection was impressive; passion fruit cheesecake, lemon tart, chocolate cake, a caramel pudding, a vanilla cake and more, including Churchill, which is a bright pink cake! All were very tasty but we were now fully fed and we’re heading off for a walk!

About 45 minutes further on and we stopped at La Marta Wildlife Refuge, an area of primary and secondary forest within La Amistad Biosphere ( recognised as a UNESCO World Patrimony of Humanity). The area is mountainous with waterfalls, rivers and caves and supports a wide range of plants including orchids, bromeliads, lichens and mosses and animals including anteaters, ocelots and tapirs. Well, we got to see the plants but no animals, as they are mainly nocturnal, and a few glimpses of birds. Most of us took a walk up to the viewpoint, from where we had an amazing view of the surrounding forest, mountains and volcano. We also saw a derelict coffee plant which operated a century and a half ago, the coffee was brought in by the ‘burrocarriles’ or mule trains from the plantations. The site also housed a number of cattle and the workers lived there, as the plant was so remote. The weather turned a little wet,which made the ascent and the descent a bit slippery, so as the rain started to turn heavier we returned to the bus and drove to our next overnight stop. This area has many sugar cane plantations, Guillermo told us some of the history and that they burn small areas of the field at a time to get rid of the snakes etc before the workers go in to remove the cane and it is bundled up on to cart to be taken away for processing.

Villa Florencio is the grandest place that we have stayed, we were fortunate to have a wonderful room but only had 1 night to enjoy it. Dinner was a bit of a shambles, we sat with Kate & Jules, from the Mumbles and had a great evening but the restaurant service left a bit to be desired, 3 starters and a main course arrived, the main course was sent back, the final starter arrived after two of the main courses had arrived followed immediately by a main course, which was sent back and the guys had completely finished their main courses before we got ours delivered to the table, at least 10 minutes apart. Apparently this is not a new issue here, as Kate had read reviews saying this was previously an issue. Off to bed and as we finally have good internet connection we were able to get the blog posted up to date.

Unrest at Turrialba Volcano (Costa Rica, January 21st, 2010).  Photograph taken from the Earth Observing-1 satellite.

Activity at the volcano had increased markedly on January 4th, with strong, long-lasting volcanic tremors accompanied by gas plumes over the volcano.  Ash emissions began the next day.  The gas and ash rushing out of the fumaroles sounded like a “jet-type noise” and could be heard several kilometres away.  On the day this photo was taken, farmers were asked to leave fields near the volcano's summit due to increased gas emissions.

Here, Turrialba Volcano emits a translucent plume of volcanic gases. The barren summit appears grey and brown, while the volcano plume is a hazy blue.  The light green areas are fields and pastures, and the dark green areas are forest, covering high-altitude ridges.

Since 2007, volcanic activity has been causing frequent showers of acid rain, killing or damaging much of the vegetation to the south-west of the summit, leaving the area brown and orange.
