Day 1 Tamarindo




Good Morning Everyone!

We made it safely to Costa Rica yesterday around 12 noon CR time. It has been beautiful weather since we arrived. Close to 95 degrees and sunny.

We had our first surf lesson yesterday afternoon...3 Costa Rican boys and us 2. It was a proper ratio for sure. They are Luis, Caesar, and Roberto and are very sweet...and VERY patient! We had so much fun but the tide was going out which makes surf a lot more difficult. So, we are heading back out in about an hour for a second day of lessons, while the tide is coming in. So excited.

Our hotel is beautiful with a great ocean view from our balcony. The first people we met here were from Jacksonville Beach. Small world indeed! We are looking forward to seeing more of the town after our surf lessons today. Everything is outdoors/open-air and the only place we have air conditioning is in our room, which is fine with us.

We filmed video but haven´t found a port to transmit it on our blog yet. We´ll keep trying so you can see how pretty we look! Ha!

Miss and love you all! Can´t wait to fill you in on more of our adventures in the next couple of days. Hopefully with video!

Pura Vida!

  2. So, I am glad you are having fun. Watch your feet, Kelli. Leigh, keep your head out of the water. Now I have more passwords to remember. I also have a blogspot and a Google account. Go figure. I am persistent for sure. Not much sun here today. We are hoping to see better weather. So jealous you are in the sun and surf. BE CAREFUL, you know how I worry! Love you guys

  3. Well, if this goes through it will be a pure miracle. It has been frustrating at best. You will be back before I get this down pat. I love the idea of cafe con leche, fried beans and rice, 80 degree water temps and riding the waves. I would be limited to my boogie board. After all, I am 50! Love you girls!
