We took the bus to Quepos today. I asked Jaida if she thought the city was different from Vancouver and I think it wasn't until that question that she even noticed any difference.
Jaida and I made a sand snowman at the beach while Blake happily chased around the little soccer ball. Christian caught a few good waves on the boogey board and was saying that he saw millions of tiny fish in the waves. That creeped me out too much, I didn't feel like having a turn anymore!
We ate dinner with Pablo - the surfing instructor. He teaches surfing for 6 months in Costa Rica and then for 6 months in San Diego. He loves his job.
We've found a good little daily groove here. Breakfast, coffees, beach/pool/dad works/outing, siesta, pool, dinner, games, bed (did you notice that siesta part? the kids play quietly or watch a movie some days and parents get to read or Christian works).
We've also hung out with most of the other travelers here. The family that just left had 3 kids that played with Jaida and Blake and helped them to overcome their fear of the dog. A new family arrived today with a 10 year old girl and a 6 year old boy. Jaida and Blake are pretty happy about that. Everyone has been telling us that many more families will be arriving now for the holidays.
Each day brings it's share of whining and complaining and kids fighting but overall it is very awesome to be here.
