Costa Rica!

We are having a great time in Costa Rica! We have seen a lot in 5 days. We spent one day investingating downtown San Jose. We saw were my Dad was born and where my grandparents spent part of their honeymoon. It is really fun to be where they were so many years ago.

Our host, Manrique, has a construction company and had to check on the progress of a job at the beach so we tagged along. The hotel was realy nice with an outdoor shower next to the hammock. Our room was right near the pool and a short walk to the beach. The sunset was so beautiful.

We took the long way home and stayed two nights at a friend's beach house. We went for a hike at a national park that also had gorgeous beaches. While we were swimming a family of monkeys came by to show off for all the tourists. They were so cute and funny. We also have seen large lizards, pretty birds, crocodiles, butterflies and even two sloths. Everything has been extra great and we look forward to more adventures to come.
