Yesterday it was another early morning for us as our guide, Roy, was here promptly at 7:15am to take us to Manual Antonio Nation Park. Roy’s knowledge of the park, animals, and fauna were outstanding. He carried around his Swarovski spotting scope so he could point out animals which we wouldn’t be able to see…

Horseback Riding and A Surprise Dinner
On Tuesday night we ventured out for dinner to a restaurant with an amazing sunset, Barba Roja. We enjoyed a yummy pitcher of sangria with some great food. Back to the house where I passed out at 8pm (after the four hours at the beach). This morning started off rough for me as I’ve been…
New Years Eve!
Yesterday morning Briana and I took in another morning walk around the grounds of Tulemar and witnessed a gang of monkeys jumping all around us, a little nerve wracking I must admit. Our scheduled adventure of the day was a Canopy Safari/Zip Line tour. We were all dressed and waiting in the lobby at 10:15am…
Villa in the Sky!
Yesterday we made it to Manuel Antonio, and oh my this trip just keeps getting better. After breakfast, we showered and finished packing for the 5 hour trip south to the central coast of Costa Rica to Manuel Antonio. At 9:45am, Diego was at our treehouse ready to shuttle us and our luggage to the…
Zip Lining OH MY!!!!
Yesterday we had a very early start to our day as we had to be up and ready for our 7:40am pickup for zip lining. HOLY COW!!!! Our driver Albert was amazing, so knowledgable about Cost Rica, and he knows everything there is to know about birds, he even carries a huge camera in his…
Pedal Boarding Lake Arenal
This morning I woke up bright and early at 5:30am to blog and just chill on our front porch. The sound of the birds and wildlife here are amazing. Briana and I were about to take an early morning stroll but Kiley said she wanted to go. You would never know it by the look…
We Made It!!!
Wow! What a day. It started with a wake up at 2:00am and our cab arriving at the house at 3:20am. I still can’t believe we made it out of the house on time, and without killing each other. Before I go into details about our day, I would like to congratulate Briana and myself…
Christmas Eve and Packing!
Our bedroom is organized chaos right now. I thought we’d already be packed, bags weighed, and the anxiety lifted. But NOPE! Not today. We still have items to add or remove. The funny thing in all of this, once Briana decides what we are taking, I then need to try and make everything fit into…
Costa Rica for the Holidays!
For Christmas this year, Briana’s parents are taking us to Costa Rica!!! We are all super excited about the adventure. We’ve booked everything from zip lining, with heights up to 656ft, to horseback riding, to peddle boarding. And of course the sloths. We depart Washington DC December 26 for 10 days of exploration and relaxation….
The Art of Burning Man
I know it’s been a while since my last post. Here’s a question for you…do you ever get out in your local area to experience something new? If the answer is no, you should! Regardless if it’s a hike in the woods, taking in a museum, or trying a restaurant for the first time. Living in…
