So after the zip line we headed back to the house for some rest and relaxation. We also had planned to go that evening to the black sand beach to see if we could spot any turtles. We were in Costa Rica during the new moon, and that is when the turtles come on shore and lay their eggs, and then the following full moon is when they hatch I believe. We didn't find any turtles, but we did find the remains of the eggs that had hatched.
Check out Scott's tourist legs in this pic...they were red, red, red! He is standing by one of the indentations in the sand where the turtle eggs were.
This was my little friend Harry. He popped out of his hole on the beach long enough to let me snap a photo of him. Side Note: Yes, Scott was trying to catch a crab...I am not really sure what he planned to do with it once he caught it, but what do you do...I knew where the hospital was.
We had a great time walking up and down the shore . We found all sorts of stuff, and the black sand was amazing!
