Skyberries and Voidmelons or Voidberries and Skymelons

It's high tide in Manuel Antonio park and there is the option of wading through the water, but there are signs warning of crocodiles, so we let a boatman row us across. There are hermit crabs everywhere, popping in and out of their shells, and iguanas keep crossing our path. We look for sloths, but see monkeys, swinging from tree to tree above us, and Jesus Christ lizards on the water in front of us.

Back on the beach, I walk out into the sea, but the current is strong, I don't stay there long.

The next day, still in Manuel Antonio, I found many butterflies fluttering around me; a large clump of bamboo; more monkeys; another waterfall.

The day after that, we headed back to San José. My flights were delayed and I missed all my connections and the flight I eventually got was awful, but actually, all of that was a long time ago now. I'm not sure why I'm even writing about it.

Every time the plane is about to land, I wonder if the planet I step out on is the same planet that I left and what exactly will be different about it this time.
