Well I'm definitely hoping too. Seeks like such an amazing diversity of creatures there.
I'm sure you'd bring us back treasures from Costa Rica :-)
hehehe, sometime I am sure! The hot springs in Switzerland are a big draw... Have to go to Costa Rica first, though!
You're welcome Pam! You've seen may lovely butterflies in the Himalayas. When are we seeing you in Switzerland ? :-)
