Update number two from Costa Rica! We went to La Paz Waterfall Gardens yesterday, which is located on the slopes of the Poas Volcano. And on the way, we stopped at The Cheese Restaurant.

Aww, these are beautiful pics! Are all the animals in your photos (with the exception of "Steve Rogers") endangered? That would make me very, very sad. :(

Stay tuned for further updates, in which I meet Tony Stark and Sam Winchester

BRING IT ON! \o/

Does Tony Stark fly?

I do think all of the animals are listed in CITES. There are different Appendixes, meaning levels of how "bad" it is to trade them. For example, the sloths are I think on Appendix III, which means trade is monitored but allowable in some places. The monkeys are Appendix I, which means no trade is allowed. My department deals mainly w/ the trade in endangered species, and one of our other departments focuses on providing scientific data to get animals listed as endangered, amongst the other things they do.

Tony Stark is grounded. But I totes met Iron Man, too, looking quite different from when he's Tony. Dean was the snuggling ocelot! Here, have a pic of Dean snuggling against Cas's shoulder:

LOL, well, to be fair, the internet connection isn't the greatest, so maybe it didn't show up? It took me awhile to be able to post.

Yeah, it's been really awesome to see our projects from the field and meet everyone. And hopefully I've been more of a help than a hindrance to my co-worker who had to take me all around town for everything!
