Last week Scott and I joined some of our best friends for a wonderful vacation in Costa Rica. It was so beautiful and relaxing...just what we needed to recharge. I missed Hannah so much, but the time alone with the hubby was worth it.
There was only one issue. Scott came down with something called Dengue Fever. Sounds bad right? Well, it was...but not as bad as it could have been. It's a tropical disease carried by a certain kind of mosquito and it's very rare for a tourist that is only there for one week to contract. He was really sick for about 3 days then slowly came around. All in all, he got to do most of the things he wanted, we just had to cram them in on the last few days.
But at least he had this view to help him heal....
This is the view from the house we rented. It sat up on a cliff overlooking the ocean and was appropriately named "Vista Magnifica!"
It had an infinity pool which was the coolest thing EVER!
The kitchen and sitting area.
View from the balcony.
Breakfast made just for us by the house cook, Rosita! Waffles and fresh fruit!
Me and hubby.
Where we spent most of our time.
Another great view from the house.
The girls out for lunch.
Scott and I at a fancy French restaurant, Sol y Mar (or Mar y Sol). All of the food was so delicious!
The aforementioned cook, Rosita. She was great!
Iguanas are everywhere and they are huge! Definitely not my favorite part.
Everyone at Dante Beach.
Scott and Craig exploring at Dante Beach (possibly where Scott got Dengue Fever).
Ziplining through the rainforest....whooohooo!
The boys hanging out at Conchal Beach.
Watch out ladies...
The whole gang on our last night together.
As you can see, it was a great trip (aside from Scott getting sick). We had a so much fun with our friends and hope to do it again one day!
