Hola



Greetings from Costa Rica, whether we deserve to be here or not, we are glad we are. It is beautiful here. The hotel is just fine (never mind what those whiners on Trip Advisor say), the grounds are lush and our room is good. It was a long trip to get here. We flew through Toronto, so went east two time zones, then back west to our regular time zone. This is the rainy season and it was raining when we arrived but by the time we went for supper the rain had stopped. It rained last night but not at all in the day and today it was sunny all day. Of course rain or not, it is hot. Last night was beautiful, there were hours of sheet lightning lighting up the hills.
We are all agreed that we do not want to do too much for a few days. Today we spent at the beach. It is a bit of a walk from where the swimming pool is, but is really nice and not too many people seem to go down there. So although it was very hot, there was a bit of a breeze from the water.
We booked a couple of excursions for later so will not be complete slugs.
One thing that is really weird is that when we go outside from an air-conditioned room, our glasses fog up!

Hard to say. They have a fruity drink special every night at dinnertime and they have all been good.

Hey Theresa, those fruity drinks look mighty good. Can't wait to get there. How is the food? We miss you lots at work, in fact we are still here, 1:10 a.m. Have a great time!

The fruity drinks are mighty good. The food is okay, not spectacular but I find I don't have much of an appetite when it is so hot. The fresh is awesome. I had mango and papaya for Donna and Jenelle.
