Costa Rica Wins

Costa Rica won today. Don’t get me wrong I still had a great day but it was just another adaventure. Last night I went to an Aerobics Class. It was in a ladies house with a whole sloop f Ticos. We jumped and kicked and danced for an hour and oh man I was soaking wet with sweat so that means today I was sore…this morning’s run was hard. Costa Rica 1 me 0.

The morning was mostly typical, we had our second quiz in cinema (unfortunately harder than I expected but still good), a stop at the beach, and a delicious lunch with Coconut Flan. I had to do a presentation on our daycare volunteering and it went very well. I was freaking out just a little when my partner didn’t show up till half an hour before class (Tico time... Costa Rica 2 Me 0). But then I remembered that we could use ENGLISH! It was a breeze.  Costa Rica 2 Me 1.





Dancing class Costa Rica 3 me 1, we tried cubian my hips just don’t move like that. It rains pretty much every day but of course it rains the hardest when you forget your umbrella Costa Rica 4 me 1. I knew I should have brought my rain slickers ;)

I then had the opportunity to go to church with my family it was the 8 year anniversary of the death of my padre’s mom. Costa Rica  (Or the 80 anniversary of her life… lost in translation). It was cool to see the cathedral and I had a great time watching but I think I understood 12 words. Costa Rica 8 me 1. The rest of the night was fun I watched soccer and minute to win it with my padres.

But I did get Coconut Flan at lunch and dinner today so I am going to call this one a win (Dad I got the recipe for you! Does that count for father’s day? Haha)

I also forget to say that this weekend I also saw two armadillos and husked and cracked open my own coconut. I also tried mamones which taste a lot like wild grapes but you have to suck them out of their peal.

  1. I thought after reading this over that you actually were the winner. You still enjoyed your
    day and had a sense of humor about all the things
    going wrong!
