Costa Rica -- my hubby and I went there for our honeymoon. We did a totally cool package though -- the first 3 days were adventure based -- we went whitewater rafting, swinging through the very tops of the rainforest trees; hiking in the rainforests; bathing in the fresh mineral mud from the bottom of a volcano -- including the bath in the natural hot springs -- watching a volcano erupt while sitting in the natural springs at the bottom (well very far down the bottom - we didn't want to melt!) -- as well as having individual log cabins with a huge picture window from which you could lay in bed and watch the volcano erupting throughout the night -- beat any fireworks show I've ever seen (and I ain't talking about....well nevermind! )

Then the last 4 days they transported us to a full service resort -- everything included -- which was fab-o-las! (Except the breakfast meal which always included fresh octopus -- uuuggghhh -- and the Spanish theme dinner which included pig head -- uuuugggghhhhhh again!) But I must say, if I had it to do again, which I hopefully will, the adventure stuff was THE BEST. And it was all relatively cheap -- a whole week with all expenses paid for about $1400 per person.

And -- Costa Rican Rum is the smoothest drink. Guado sours -- uhm uhm uhm -- there's a reason they tell you not to drink in a hot tub -- same applies for the natural hot tub of a hot spring at the bottom of a volcano -- I don't really remember a whole lot from that night !
