The water here was just about the warmest I&#8217;ve ever felt in Costa Rica, and very salty too.  Perfect for floating aimlessly around the small white sand bay next to the tree, which we all did on various toys or on our backs.<\/p>\n<p>The Jesus Tree is in a secret location, very difficult to find, and I&#8217;d be very surprised if any of the five volunteers that I took there today would be able to find it again.<\/p>\n<p>We had great afternoon lighting, and I was able to take some nice photos with their cooperation.<\/p>\n<h3>Today&#8217;s Photo Gallery<\/h4>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item
