Costa Rica

I have been kind of slacking about this. I actually forgot the site.

The trip started off amonously. Teri was 1/2 hour late in getting to my hose,so we were pretty late to the airport. We made it to the plane but Toni was in a panic, since we had not arrived when they started boarding. No worries, we got there before they called for our seats to board.
Next, we were all set, so I let Barb know we would be in time to Atlanta. Pretty amazing for a flight out of MSP in January. So we pulled away from the gate, then disaster. A women freaked out and had to get off the plane! We had to go back to the gate, once they found an open one and let her off. After getting her off and deicing, we were finally under way, 1 1/2 hours late. We met Barb in Atlanta, had some lunch and 4 hours later,off to Costa Rica! ThanksBarb for waiting around for us and having lunch. It was great to see you.

We arrived pretty late at the condo where we are staying, so we called it a night.

Saturday dawned bright & early. It was perfect weather so we hit the beach. The beach was beautifal. Wonderful,warm blue green water, with boat docked out a ways. We walked long the beach, checked out some of the shops and headed into town to find groceries.

Time to hit the pool. Of course, because I had tried to get a base tan before I left, I was comfortable outside,big mistake. My shoulder,chest and back didn't tan at the salon, but my stomach which hasn't seen the sun, since I was 14 and will not on this trip, of course is super tan and has no chance of burning! Of course I got burned!!

To be continued.
