Day 6: The night in the jungle was fine, but before that, ...

But before that, we were in the jungle till 1:00 AM and were actually able to see the strawberry dart frog, also known as the Blue Jean dart frog (Dendrobates pumilio). I also disovered a snake that has not been identified yet.

About the night: Michael wasn't able to sleep at all. Ludwig, our doctor, has never slept better – so he claims... It rained hard. But there were no encounters with nocturnal creepy-crawlies.

I got up as early as 5:00 AM to get some shots of the sunrise in the rain forest. Morning is the best time to capture the sunrays coming through the canopy of leaves and the rising moisture in a photograph.

We spent a long time at a river nearby, where we spent a lot of time catching fish and carried out various measurements. We were able to catch Priapichthys annectens and two different species of cichlid with our fish nets. We didn't find any shrimp, but we did see a glass frog (Centrolenidae)!

The air humidity was 80 % in the morning. The daytime temperatures fluctuate between 24 and 28 °C. The rain forest is far more beautiful even than the one in Mexico. Lots of primary forest with huge trees and more animals than around the cenotes.

After lunch, we continued on to the Arenal volcano. We will spend tonight in the middle of the rain forest again, but this time in normal beds in a lodge.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
