Wednesday

Just a brief blog to document what we did today.  Another early start....Headed out of town and out in the country to visit the butterfly farm.  Then back on the bus for our trip to the Botanical gardens.  Lunch at a quaint little town and then off to the dairy processing plant.  It was pretty warm today, but the evening is pleasant.  Fernando ordered Pizza Hut pizza and we all sat outside on the picnic tables to eat.  Phillip ran to a minimart and bought some Imperials to drink.  Even though Costa Rica is the same time zone as Arkansas, they are not on daylight savings time, so it gets dark earlier. The area in the front courtyard has been on of our favorite places when we are stationed at the hotel.

We leave at 7:00 in the morning and will visit a sugar can mill on the way to the coast.  It is about a five hour drive to the coast, so it will be nice to break the trip up.  We will spend the rest of our trip at an all inclusive resort.  Friday is our adventure day - zip lining, horseback riding, rafting and swimming in a natural hot pool.  Saturday is a beach day so that we can rest up for the trip back home on Sunday.  Hard to believe that we are nearing the end of our trip....
