Does anyone else feel that September-December is just non stop busy? I have barely had time to regroup since getting back from Costa Rica. As soon as we got home we had my son's birthday..
Halloween..
a little Halloween cookie decorating at Williams Sonoma
and then your basic case of "reentry is rough"
But now I finally feel settled!
All I can say about Costa Rica is that it is an amazingly beautiful country. It was never on my radar until the hubs brought it up as a possible vacation destination. My initial reaction was , umm no!! but I am so glad the hubs persuaded me, now I really want to take my kids next time.
our beach was amazing
The activities were endless
a little golf
as long as you can keep the monkeys off the course
kayaking
tennis on grass
which is extremely difficult
catch of the day.
Meet the resort fish monger and pick your dinner for that night, the red snapper is delish
rock climbing
zip lining
swimming in the hot springs then taking a volcanic mud bath
I know it sounds/looks gross but trust me your skin will feel absolutely amazing after this.
and a little paddle boarding
At night you can release a wish lantern
and of course the animals were everywhere
monkeys are like squirrels in CR, they are everywhere.
and extremely large iguanas.
It was such a great trip, I would recommend it to anyone, and to top it off, when we were checking out the concierge gave us a voucher for 3 free nights because they feel we did not experience the resort to the fullest since it was under renovations.
wow those wish lanterns really do work!!
Now I am off again today with my girls and my mom for our annual trip to Silver Dollar City
hee haw
