We flew into San Jose and rented a 4 wheel drive and headed up the mountains (the steepest and windiest roads I have ever been on!) to the North Central region of CR. We stayed in a city called Arenal for a few days. They are famous for their active volcano. It was so beautiful and right in the middle of the jungle!We stayed at this great resort where we had natural hot springs coming from the volcano which we relaxed in, in between our fun excursions!
Baylee loved their water slides the best though!The beautiful walks and scenery at our resort!The kids loved the hanging bridge!Savana enjoying her all you can eat pine apple breakfast too!The first morning in Arenal, Lou and I went Canyoning (repelling down water falls!) It was so much fun! The second day we went Zip lining thousands of feet up through the rain forest! It was another amazing adventure!After our fun filled days, we enjoyed amazing Costa Rican feasts every night!The next place we visited was Playa Samara on the Northeast coast of CR. We stayed in a villa right on the beach! It was very beautiful there!
Omi and Savana spot a pool side friend at Samara! Playa Samara's fun poolWe went snorkeling off of the reef close to Samara Beach and even saw some dolphins and sea turtles! We tried deep sea fishing, but didn't have any luck.Instead of a fresh catch, Lou enjoyed him some yummy pine apple!The girls loved the boating adventure too!Macy and Omi in front of our villasSamara Beach had a horse ranch and the horses just roamed free, we loved it!The beautiful Samara Sunset!
My cute naked baby on the beach! Another great Costa Rican meal! The last place we stayed was on the southwestern coast of CR at Manual Antonio National Park. Here we had the beach and the jungle all in one place! The Hotel was amazing too!We had a great time hiking the jungle and beaches of Manuel Antonio! We were surrounded by monkeys, toucans, sloths, etc...Coconut anyone?BEACH DAY!
PURA VIDA! We can't wait to go back! Happy Birthday my Hot Hubby, hope you enjoyed it :)
