Bill’s Christmas Eve in Costa Rica
Today we have taken it easy, it can be rough to keep going on adventures and swimming in the ocean! We took a little down time from all that. It’s been a very nice day here. We haven’t kept any schedule it’s just been whatever, with the exception of lunch. For lunch we wanted to …
Christmas Eve in Costa Rica
We learned today that most Costa Ricans celebrate Christmas Eve more than Christmas day. There have been some fireworks and Francie, our server, opened presents with her son who is 7 around noon today. He got a pirate Lego set, some transformers and some clothes. She said he was excited.

Playa de los Pirates
Hello All: I’m once again sitting in the balcony restaurant with a cup of tea and come cookies. I finished working on my online class earlier today, so I don’t have work tonight, which is nice.

No scuba for you!
So we had some technical difficulties this morning with Rocket Frog Divers. They seem to have two websites with two different addresses that share a single office and cell number. We were up early and made it to our taxi and he took us to a spot that didn’t have any Rocket Frog signage but …
