	Puntarenas (Puerto Caldera) Mangrove River Tour Rating: Here, the guide was great giving us great information and finding wildlife like magic. We saw many birds, some monkeys, crocs and other animals in a pleasant river boat. Train ride Rating: Train ride was OK, but the train was old and rickety and the cars were nor air -conditioned. Also it was so noisy the guide really couldn't tell us much as we ride through the countryside.

	Cartagena (Colombia) City Tour Rating: Overall, a nice tour with a pleasant guide. But it was HOT and HUMID. Shopping was rushed and not great. but otherwise I found it to be a pleasant excursion.

	Aruba Aloe Balm Facility Rating: This was the weakest stop on the excursion. They gave us a talk about aloe outdoors. Upon entering the factory they lead you upstairs to a viewing area where you see some machines and guys working. The best part is shopping for aloe products in the store. Arikok National Park Rating: Another hit on the trip-the unique rock formations are astounding and the park itself is magnificent in its desert spender. A great stop. Butterfly Farm Rating: This was a great tour. We started at the butterfly farm, which is a unique habitat. There is much to see there and they offered free drinks if you bought items at the gift shop
