Puerto Jimenez, Costa Rica, 2004-05-13

When choosing between a too heavy bag and even the slightest chance of getting hungry, the choice is obvious. Since I`ve got to carry all my food for my 4 day hike, it`ll be one of those heavy at the beginning light at the end hikes. Luckily for my sense of adventure, not only will my first day be heavy, but I`m going to practically have to run the first 10km of the 20km beach trail. OK, I don`t have to, but if I can`t make it to the first river by 10:00am, the tide will be too high and I`ll have to wait untill noon before I can cross again. From there I continue to La Sirena Ranger Station, which I`ve been told is is amazing and beautiful so I should camp there in my rented tent at least 2 nights. I`m excited for my adventure. I`ve read that this park is supposed to be “almost eden” although I don`t remember anything about sharks and crocodiles in Eden. Nonetheless, I`m ready to try and live up to my name and give it a go. And that`s kinda funny seeing as how when I went to make my reservation to camp, the officer who took that reservation specifically warned me not to touch the snakes…
