Costa Rica

Several birds would arrive on the balcony railing for breakfast EVERY morning.  They were a little noisy but fun to feed.

These two loved Hotel El Ocotal....Not just the food but also the view
 

Can I just say the boy was relaxed!
 
                                        It was the rainy season but luckily we only had rain a couple to times


Getting his feet wet
 

 And they wondered why I got seasick
 

This was unexpected and beautiful

 

The sunset was gorgeous the night before we left....
 

....as you can see

There's Nothing Like Cooperation

 
 
 
 


Claire and Davey invited us over for supper last night.  That's something we always enjoy.  I picked up Alex, Eli & Kali from school.  As always, they were hungry so we went to Sonic for a little treat. After an oreo blast, two orders of fries & fruit slushes, we headed towards Claire & Davey's.

Davey & the boys worked on the pumpkin before supper.  As you can see,it was a collaborative effort.  They all but crawled into the thing.  I love watching them get excited about something as simple as craving a pumpkin.  Love those kids.

Costa Rican Wildlife

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 



 
 





















The river cruise we took in Costa Rica was fantastic.  The iguanas, crocs, birds, mini-bats and monkeys weren't very cooperative but I managed to get a few shots even in the rain.
