I’m not sure Tamarindo will be my favorite place in Costa Rica, but it will be fine. I spent part of the morning and afternoon camped out on bean bags by the pool working on posts for the blog and reading a book. It was a pleasant way to spend part of the day after …

Waterfall Swim
We had a lot of driving yesterday but a super fun activity! Our drive from La Fortuna to Tamarindo was about 4 hours, but we found a driver who was willing to take us to a waterfall on the way. I had planned for us to go to the Rio Celeste Waterfall. I’ve been there …
Made it to the beach!
Our new friend Ivan gave us a ride to Tamarindo today. We had planned on stopping by Rio Celeste but Ivan suggested a waterfall that we could go swimming at and we opted for swimming! La Leona Waterfall was where we went. It was a very pretty place and we had fun swimming and cooling …
Caving

Being a less wild river we were able to take …

I have a beautiful view of the volcano right beside me. Bill and I had breakfast this morning beside a German …
Adventure Days begin!
We chose not to rush into our adventures too early today, we didn’t actually schedule anything for today, we just waited until after breakfast to make a plan. We have a plan for the remaining time in the Arenal area now. We have rafting tomorrow, caving Thursday and we have a stop off at at …
Sloth Watching
Hello All: Our trip to Costa Rica has started out pretty well. We are spending the first part of our trip near the Arenal Volcano. The volcano is right out our window so it’s a lovely view. We are in the center of Costa Rica and it took about three hours to get here from …
