One of Molly’s favorite way to spend time at Casa Divina is to go on walks with their two little girls . She also likes to get her feet off the ground: “My husband has just opened a new business: canopy and ropes course tours. So we spend a lot of time up there in the trees, flying through the canopy, enjoying the outdoors.” And of course you shouldn’t miss out on a bird-watching session with Efrain, who is quite the ornithology expert. She especially recommends observing a cock-of-the-rock lek, or courting ritual.
