COSTA RICA - DAY #7

The day has finally come, time to go home! Today was our last day in beautiful Costa Rica! It has been quite the adventure, and has been so much fun. My new phrase for life is "Pura Vida" . . . no worries . . . life is "pure" . . . life is good! Today the boys went out for their last adventure, a little deep sea fishing! Chris kept asking me all morning what time it was, and if it was 6:15 AM yet! He was like a little kid, so excited to go fishing! So they headed out to sea in hopes of catching us dinner!

Chris fishing . . . or something

This explains how many fish they saw

The fellas

Pens and I went running, then did some shopping. We tried to find this beach in Los Suenos, and all we could find was a private beach resort for residence. So, we decided to pop our heads in to see if we could get to the beach. I will be honest, I was surprised that Pens was up for breaking some rules, because sometimes we get fines when we think we don't have to follow rules. So, we strolled in, pretending like we knew what we were doing, said "Buenos dias" to all the peeps and security guards. We found our way to the beach through the "private resort", and stumbled upon a crappy beach that didn't even have soft sand for us to lay in! So, we headed back to the house, to see if the fellas caught us some fish!


As the boys strolled into the house, we asked them if they had brought back any fish! They said they didn' t have any fish, nor did they have the "Galloper", the care we had borrowed from the guys house we are staying. Hmmm . . .thats interesting we thought, and as Mike told us the story of the Galloper, our minds thought the worst. I guess the belts had broken and the brakes didn't work, and the power steering went out! In the end the Galloper was fixed, for a small fee, and all was well in Costa Rica! Pura Vida!



To finish off the trip, we were able to watch the Bachelor Finale on TV . . . they had broadcasted ABC over here, we just happened to stumble across it while flipping through the channels! It has been an awesome trip, with great friends!! Until the next adventure!

Which bag is mine . . . which bag is Chris'
