DAY ONE: woke up at 3 .. drove to the airport .. and got on the plaine. we got to san jose and had to drive 2 hours to jaco beach cause thats the first place we stayed at. on the way there we stopped at this bridge thingy where you could look over and there was TONS of humungo crocidiles . it was kinda weird. lol so then we drove to the condo we rented... put away all our stuff ... explored the town... then it was time for dinner. so we went to this restaurant waaay up on a mountain & it was soo pretty ! lol
DAY TWO: we did a canopy tour. wow it was so awesome ok so you go up to the very top [canopy] of the rain forest and your like hooked onto a cable and you like swing from tree to tree like tarzan . haha it was SOO freaking fun . then after that was over we went back to the beach and went surfing which was so cool. then had lunch.. went back to the beach...and explored the marina thing.
DAY THREE: we took a surfing lesson in the morning.. surfed for a few hours .. went shopping .. then horse back riding on the beach :] it was really cute. then we went to this really cool restaurant on the beach.. then to the gym that was next to our condo .
DAY FOUR: went to Hermosa [whicih was only like 20 minutes away from Jaco] and its liek this realy cute surf town soo of course we surfed. then just relaxed at the condo bc we had a looot of traveling to do the next day.
DAY FIVE: drove to Arenal [4 hrs away] checked into the hotel which was soo awesome cause its on the side of a volcano ! lol. had lunch .. explored town .. went to the pool [theres no beach there] dinner , THEN we went to the Hot Springs .. which was likr 5 minutes from the hotel and its like all these connecting waterfalls and you can swim in them but hte water is really hot bc it comes from the volcano. and every night thats where every went to hang out .
DAY SIX: we went on a slow raft tour of the river/safari . it was cool we saw lots of monkeys & sloths & tucans & other animals. lol . then on the way back we stopped at this place where they feed iguanas so the iguanas were evreywhere and it was kinda scary . lol . then we went into town and just kinda explored what it was like.. then had dinner & went to the hot springs.
DAY SEVEN: we went white water rafting. ahh it was soo fun ! but of course everyone thoguht itd be funny to push caroline into the water . but carolien is smarter than she looks. caroline took jamie down with her and then jamie and caroline got some sweet revenge on mom dad and chris :] lol it was really fun . but the rapids were an hour and a half away from where we were staying. .and on the car ride home i felt really sick so when we got back to the hotel i jsut relaxed in the room with my sister while the rest of the family went off and idd whatever. so we ordered room service. lol we had fun .
DAY EIGHT: last day of my trip =[ well we got up early so we could do a different canopy tour by the volcano. this one was even better. lol for a couple of the cables they let you do crazy tricks and i went with like no handsand i swear i thoght i was gonna fall and die . and on the next one i went upside down.
