The Drinks Were So Good… #1Liner Wednesday

 How good were they? 

They were the bees’ knees! 🤦‍♀️

It was a perfect day, here in the middle of the ‘rainy season’. Friends invited us to drive to a tranquil Nature Resort on the Caldera River for the day. I can’t say enough good things about El Rio Encantado 

Our host reserved the pool area for us and they provided service as needed at the poolside bar. We brought our own lunch and enjoyed while listening to the river.  There are cabinas for rent all around the property with beautiful trails between them and that also lead to the river. 

I’m going to stop talking now and just share the images with you. I wish I could share the feeling of exhilaration we experienced being beside the river nestled in the mountains. 

Oh, and in case you were concerned, I rescued my little bee friend using the straw and sent it off with a warning to beware what pool it chooses to cool its feet in. 😉

Yeah, I did spend time on the turtle mound

The hubby loves these

If I get to go back, I hope to walk that bridge. I took this shot from a lookout tower.

Making yummy drinks

This Treehouse is one of the rentals and has its own rancho for cooking outdoors. It is right on the river.

Fresh air and tranquility heals the body and soothes the soul.

We were told you can sometimes see the monkeys but they stayed out of view while we were there. 

The lookout tower

Those are roots!

Trails

My muscles were peeved that I had so recently been inactive but we are on the same page now. 😉
