Our daughter Andrea, her husband Tony and their friend Shefali, came to visit a few weeks ago. It was so much fun to have them all here, loved having them. Here are just a few pictures of the experiences they had visiting fantastic Costa Rica! Oh I hated to see them leave!
Fabulous Manuel Antonio National Park
The water is always so warm.
Nothing like what North Americans expect from oceans and lakes.

Another local sight, check out that boulder wedged in at the top!
Andrea and Tony had a request of a Tico Style dinner with some of our local Tico friends. So Cecelia, Lorena (and Aldemar pitched in) were happy to cater a wonderful meal and bring some family along. I think we had around 20 people, great Latin music and fantastic food!!
Our day at Playa (Beach) Ventanas (means windows)
This cave at the beach is about 300 feet long. Best to go at low tide.

Costa Rica is indeed Vacation Land! So much to see and do. Each day was easy to fill up with activities and sights. We also made sure they got to experience our fabulous San Isidro Farmers Market. Andrea said it was a bit overwhelming; we have heard this comment before, it really is HUGE!
Other days we went to another waterfall swimming hole, experienced terrific mountain driving with great views of miles and miles of Costa Rica scenery, hikes into the jungles (on paths of course), river walks and watching Costa Rican wildlife. Just the drive to the Southern Zone takes you through miles and miles of plantations of palms for palm oil, beautiful mountains, along the Pacific Ocean, through authentic working Tico towns and little beach towns to shop for souvenirs. Next time Andrea said she would like to relax more on our veranda!!
