Costa Rica

Just returned from a week in Costa Rica. Pics will be posted sometime this week. Quickly, a few highlights:

1. Watching a volcano errupt from my hotel bedroom
2. Spotting monkeys, monkeys, and more monkeys!
3. Boogie-boarding in Manuel Antonio and getting sand burn on my belly
4. Spotting not only a two-toed sloth, but a three-toed sloth as well!
5. Not dying on the windy roads in the pouring rain
6. Not dying while repelling down a 150 ft. waterfall
7. Relaxing in the natural hot springs at the ultra-nice Tabacon hotel
8. Getting a massage after a day of flying through the forest canopy
9. Seeing the most beautiful bird ever, the resplendent quetzal
10. Finally getting rid of my heinous tennis shoes by ruining them in the water

And what would a highlight list be without a lowlight list??
1. Having to leave the beach
2. Waking up by 7 am every morning (on vacation!)
3. Having hair so big not even a gallon of product would contain it
