The Rainy Season

   Why is Costa Rica so green? It rains a lot. Rain makes things green and beautiful. If it was always sunny, you would have a desert. Usually the rain is gentle and warm. So there is really no need to cancel outdoor activities. You will get wet white water rafting and rappelling down waterfalls so it does not matter if it rains. The rain forests are thick and lush. They are an explosion of green. All plants look like they are on steroids. You can watch the rain fall on your flowers and almost see them growing. Well at least the next day they look bigger. Don't "dis" the rain. Water is life for all of us, plants and humans.
