We needed some action on our blog so I thought I would post some pictures from our trip to Costa Rica. Trevor and I went for 8 days without the kids (that was the best part) and we had an AMAZING time. Costa Rica is beautiful!!!
This was Trevor's favorite sign of the whole trip. It says "pee here" for those of you who don't speak spanish like me. It's always a good sign when you are in a country that encourages you to keep drinking even while you are peeing!
This was at the bottom of an hour long hike we took through the jungle to a waterfall. I have never been so sweaty in my entire life. It was literally dripping off of me but at least we got to swim in the pools at the bottom of the waterfall. Beautiful.
Here is the waterall that we hiked to. The pictures aren't even close to showing how big and amazing it was. And we didn't see another person the entire time! We had the jungle and the waterfall all to ourselves.
This is the beach where we took our surf lessons. I am such an awesome photographer, huh?
We took surf lessons from a local guy that we found. He did a great job and we were both able to get up. It was super fun but exhausting. No wonder surfers are in such good shape.
We went on a zip line tour through the trees in the jungle.
We went to Manuel Antonio Park which was about an hour drive south of where we were staying. It is one of Costa Rica's main tourist attractions. They have beautiful beaches and wildlife. We went on a hike around this cliff and I took this picture looking down on the beach that we swam in. Another awesome picture by me. =)
Another beach shot in Manuel Antonio Park.
The cute couple on the same beach.
We took a boat tour out to Tortuga Island. They took us snorkeling, served us beers and fresh fruit, and made us lunch. It was sooooo yummy. So fun. And we got super burned. Not so fun.
This was the "wild" pig on the island. He looks like he is about to attack me huh? Or not. I think he is drunk.
Another picture on Tortuga Island. Could my husband be any shorter?!This was one of the best trips I have ever been on. All of the people in Costa Rica were so nice (it helped a ton that Trevor speaks Spanish and that he is very outgoing). The food was awesome. We literally ate fresh fish and delicious fruit with every meal. I may have had some beers in there too but I can't remember. And all the beaches were beautiful! We already want to go back! Now who can we sucker into watching our kids for us again? Any takers?!
