Honeymoon

David and I flew into San Jose, Costa Rica on March 12.  We spent the night at a Hampton Inn near the airport since we got in around 9.  The next morning a shuttle picked us up to take us to our resort.  The shuttle took about 4 hours, but we were able to see a lot of the country.  Check-in at the resort wasn't until 3 and we got there at 11 so we had to wait awhile before going to our room.  We sat at a lot of bars and ate snacks until we finally got to go in our suite at 2 pm.  The suite is awesome.  It has a big patio where we can sit outside, free internet  (clearly), a rain shower, jacuzzi tub, a tiny living room area and a huge bed.  We received complimentary champagne and fruit to enjoy.  The beach is not exactly how David pictured it would be, but it is a beach so we are not complaining.  I will try to take some picture of the view from our resort to the ocean, and then of the beach itself.  I'll also snap a picture of the pool area too since it is rockin'.  We didn't realize our resort has this schedule of activities that anyone can participate in such as archery and rifle shooting, kayaking or snorkeling tour, sunset walks, sushi and cocktail workshops, yoga, and much more. We plan on doing nothing today except relaxing on the beach and near the pool.  Don't worry,  we will wear tons of sunscreen.  There are animals, birds, and lizards wandering all around the resort's grounds.  One type of animal looks kind of like a big possum, but they remind us of Puddles with a long tail so we have named them Puddles 2 in her honor. Tomorrow or Wednesday we will be taking an excursion to the rainforest to hike and take a lot of pictures!  I'll keep you posted....
