US-12167852

 The ID of this card is American, it was sent from New Jersey but the card, as it can easily seen, is from Costa Rica.
Laura visited the country for the third time in January and says that Manuel Antonio National Park is her favorite place there.

Manuel Antonio National Park is located on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, just south of the city of Quepos, Puntarenas, and 157 km (98 mi) from the national capital of San José.
Established in 1972, Manuel Antonio National Park, is the smallest national park in the country,but its 683 hectares boast an unparalleled blend of stunning landscapes and vibrant wildlife.
Nestled within this compact yet extraordinary park is a mesmerizing mix of rainforest, pristine beaches, and coral reefs, creating a sanctuary of natural beauty. The beaches, considered among the most picturesque in Costa Rica, are fringed by dense, green forests, offering outstanding snorkeling opportunities in their clear, inviting waters.
The forest itself is a haven for an array of wildlife, including sloths, iguanas, the enchanting squirrel monkeys—a species rarely seen elsewhere—along with white-faced monkeys and countless vibrant crabs that add a splash of color to the landscape. 
The trail weaving around Punta Catedral affords hikers breathtaking panoramic views, further enhancing the park’s allure. - in: https://manuelantoniopark.net
