Our big news is that we will be leaving for Costa Rica in a couple weeks. This is one of the places we considered going for our honeymoon but decided to go later on when we could take the time to enjoy it after getting to know each other a little better. Mike had many frequent flyer miles from his credit card so we got our tickets for $90, not each but total!!!
My grandparents were missionaries there and it is where my Dad was born. We are excited to be able to go see the places where they served. Before we go we will spend some time with Grammy and a map so we can see where it is that we need to go. Of course many things have changed drastically in the past 60 years but it will still be great to walk where they walked so many years ago.
There are many Costa Ricans who come to CIU and Mike has made friends with them all. He is like a Dad so some of them so they call him Pappy. We will be staying with several of these friends so will have our own personal tour guides. One of them has a house near the beach so we will have some time alone there for a few days.
We are both very excited about this trip. We leave June 24 and will be there for two weeks. Many people are suprised that Mike is taking a vacation! I haven't taken very many myself so I am glad now that we can take one together!
