Hello again! This post is a different kind of story. Last weekend, we had a three-day weekend. So, we took advantage of the opportunity, and we took a trip. We went to an area of Costa Rica called Manuel Antonio. It is about four hours from the language school in San Jose. We really had a good time.
One of the reasons for this trip was to take a final big trip with a couple who have become really good friends of the family. Their names are Nicky and Janie Rider. They are missionaries to Mexico. They will be leaving language school in a little over a week and head off to Mexico. Also, we invited our friends, Randy and Nati, to come with us. They agreed, and we spent a couple of days together playing games, eating lots of food, going to the beach, and practicing our Spanish with them. If you do not remember these two people, then here is a reminder. They are our Tico friends who come over once a week for dinner to help us with Spanish. Also, they are the same friends that invited us to their wedding. What an honor!
The two pictures above are the reason for this blog. The place we stayed at was not enclosed. The bars on the windows kept humans out, but it did not keep our little friend here out of the house. He, and his buddy, ran across our roof, down the other side, in the kitchen window, and he stole a banana. (I think he has done this before) Anyway, it was a sight to see. I can be pretty sure when I mention that most of you have not had this happen to you in the States.
We had a good time just getting away from it all. The kids enjoyed the beach and seeing all the animals at the National Park. Here are some pictures of some of the animals we saw:
WHITE-FACED MONKEY
RACOON
CRAB (Look at the colors on this one)
