Costa Rica Pura Vida

Assistant Sam Carter and Husband recently vacationed in beautiful Costa Rica...
Let's just say it was a "once in a lifetime experience". From the mountains of San Ramon to the white sandy beaches of Santa Teresa, we saw it all. We traveled through the central part of the country all the way to the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. The mountains were covered in lush rain forests with amazing tropical birds, and three toed sloths. We stayed three nights at an Eco-lodge and culinary school called The Inn at Coyote Mountain. It was an amazingly relaxing retreat. It is nice to get away from technology every once in a while. We then headed off to our second destination. After driving for miles (on treacherous unpaved roads) in our 4x4 rental, and traveling across the ocean via car ferry, we arrived in Santa Teresa. This was a surfer's haven. Dreadlocks and ATV's! Here we stayed at Latitude 10° Jungle Beach Resort. This resort is another Eco-loge consisting of secluded bungalows right in the middle of the jungle and on the edge of a private beach. the water was amazingly warm and at night the howler monkeys were amazingly loud. The people we met were great as well. There is not enough time in the day to share all the experiences we had in just one short week! It was a vacation well worth the wait.
