Munching On Key Limes And Coconuts in Key West and Costa Rica

May 29, 2009 at 8:52 AM | by | Comments (0)

And we’re back in Costa Rica and Florida again this week, thanks to the show's new format of spreading destinations across episodes. It’s a little disappointing since we were already there with Bridget last week, but at least there were new things to see in Key West, like a spooky ghost tour and some relaxing spa time outside Arenal National Park in Costa Rica.

The show starts off with a little river rapids adventure with pal Amber Campisi. The current didn’t look very rough to us at home, but the frequent and abrupt camera angle changes made it feel like we were right there with them. The overzealous tour guide was the highlight of the journey, as he threatened to tip the raft and spun them around silly, although he wasn’t as bold as some of the locals who jumped into the river from a rope bridge. Thankfully everyone stayed pretty dry, and the raft stayed upright the whole time.

Needing to dry off, the girls head up the volcano for a trip on a zip line. Their guides here lacked the personality of the raft guide, but it’s probably a good thing that they were a little more professional, since they're the ones tending to the safety equipment. Despite vultures circling in the air, the girls were safe and made it to the other side each time. Amber did get stuck close to the platform once, but she was able to shimmy to safety.

In the evening’s second episode, Bridget heads back to the US where she meets up with former playmate Patrice Hollis—is there anyone Bridget isn’t friendly with? The pair of beauties ventured to the Island of Marathon to take a tour of the islands from above in a helicopter. After all that chopper noise and vibration, it was time for a snack, and of course the snack was key lime pie.

Key West is a great place just to relax and watch the day slip away, but since Bridget is always looking for a little adventure she headed out to sea aboard a paddle board. Already familiar with other board sports from her previous beach destinations, she eventually got the hang of it. Things were pretty calm that day, which definitely helped her master the art of paddle surfing. We'll start looking for her on the pro tour any day now.

As always, we’re left wanting more. Next week our travel babe heads to Essaouira, Morocco and then is off to Cancun, Mexico. We’re just hoping that she finished shooting in Mexico before that pesky Swine Flu arrived, because that is so not sexy.
