- The pictures are in a larger format (800 pixels) than you get when you view them online, such as on the Picasa web site
- You can look at the pictures just by scrolling up and down, no clicking and waiting for the next page.
- It's possible to embed movies, audio files, images from other sources, and links
to external web sites
- Writing out a narrative and adding pictures is easier than writing captions for every picture.
This is all presented in chronological order, but if you are in a rush and want to jump ahead, the best pictures are from Manuel Antonio, Rio Celeste, and Uvita.
Here is a map of Costa Rica, with our route traced in light red.

About the videos: I originally had uploaded our videos to YouTube, but the image quality was so poor that I looked for a better option and found Vimeo. These videos look really good even if you select the fullscreen option.
Vimeo seems to a be pretty good service. It takes longer to upload videos, but the picture quality is outstanding. The only downside I've seen is there can be some choppiness, since you are downloading a lot more data than YouTube.
