Yesterday, it rained almost all day. I woke up to the sound of rain on the windows, and it reminded me of Costa Rica. Most of the houses have tin roofs, and I was there during the rainy season, so I would fall asleep to the tinkling sound. It made me realize how much I have missed the rain. Before I went to Costa Rica, I did not care for it as much, but now, it feels like an old friend.
One of the coolest things was going into the rainforest. We walked down a bunch of steps so that we could see this huge waterfall. It was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen in my life. It was so cool to be able to see the waterfall’s beauty up close. After we had seen it, we had to walk back up the steps, and right on time, it started raining.
Normally the rain is awesome, but it also makes you heavier. It’s hard to love the rain when you’re trying to hike back up to the bus. Still, I have grown to appreciate the rain and all of its beauty. I hope to return to the rainforest again someday soon, so that I can gain even more appreciation for the rain!
