Costa Rica

Emily and I went on a one week get away to Costa Rica after the match for my residency.  We had an amazing vacation.  I will post a video in my family videos library.  Highlights of the trip were doing a zip line through the jungle canopy in Monteverde, walking in the rain forest, watching lava roll down the face of the Arenal volcano, soaking it up in the hot springs resort from lava heated streams, sun baking on the beach, and surfing on Playa Grande.  There were a few downfalls - someone stole our cameras out of our bag on the bus (from under the seat they cleaned out the entire bag that was between my legs - what skills!) and Emily got stabbed by a sting ray (a small flesh wound, but extremely painful).  On the latter, I thought she was elastagirl fighting a shark.  The first thing that I did was high tail it for the shore - not really.  I ran to help her and we ended our beach session for the day.  Otherwise, the vacation was great.
