Today was quite a relaxing day. It began early in the morning when we had our final breakfast at the sketchy hotel. We then packed our suitcases and headed out on a four hour drive to Playa Jacó. The car ride was filled with bumps, sing alongs, and jokes. After about three hours into the car ride we stopped at a crocodile infested river. We saw at least 25 crocodiles. Miss. Mahoney scared me and I almost fell in the crocodile infested river. (No he didn't) We then reached the new hotel and had a nice lunch. I had chicken and rice. We then had a really weird jello'ish thing for desert. We got our room keys and settled down, but we couldn't get to comfortable because in about thirty minutes we were going to head into town. On the bus towards town we made up a nickname for Miss Mahoney. We called her Señorita Tortuga which means Miss Tortoise. We called her this because during horseback riding her horse was really slow. Once in town we went shopping. I got a gray bag and a white and black hat, that said pura vida. Finally to end the long day we went swimming and some people practiced their synchronized swimming dance. Then we ate dinner at a fish taco place. Over all It was a really fun day.

Fun reflection Owen. Glad to hear you're all at the next hotel safely. Is the new area of Costa Rica much different than the last town you were in? Looking forward to the next update. Hope you all continue to have a fun experience in Costa Rica!
ReplyDeleteGreat reflection, Owen. It sounds like you are all having a fun time on your adventure. It looks like you are sitting on swings in the restaurant photo, am I right? Enjoy the day!!
ReplyDeleteMr Awesome - what a great reflection. Very glad to hear you didn't fall in with the crocodiles. Keep having fun !
ReplyDeleteSounds like a busy day! The Crocodiles must have been fun to watch (from a distance!). Thanks for sharing your reflection!
