Hola!

So we made it to Costa Rica safely!  Our plane from LA to Florida was pretty sketchy, my seat reclined back on take off and was never able to go back again once we got it up.  Oh well, we at least had some in flight entertainment on our second flight.  There was a group of about 20 guys all going to Costa Rica for what sounded like a bachelor party, basically they were all wasted and while rather annoying they were also pretty funny.
I've been in the same clothes for over the past 24 hours now our timeline was:
5:30 Leave Carlsbad
The view of the Carribean 
7:00 Arrive at In-n-out (obviously an important step in our travels)
8:00 Check in at LA
9:50 flight from LA to Florida
5:30 arrive in Florida
10:300 flight to Costa Rica
Basically we had the longest layover and people were sleeping on the airport floor, Dad and I were wondering if mom should check their temperatures.  The flight from Florida, though, had pretty ocean views.  The water was so clear and blue from the airplane.  Unfortunatly, I was only able to get one good picture and it's just a little bit of what we could see.

We drove up to the hotel we are staying at tonight, right outside our window is Arenal (the volcano).  The owner of the hotel said the best time to see the volcano is at 5.... AM! But we did take the scenic route up we  found out only once we got here.  There were a lot of windy roads and "dangerous bridges" according to our GPS stystem.  But none the less at least it was a pretty drive throug the rainforest.  
The place that we are staying tonight is very cute.  It's clean and not the bates motel I stayed at with Jenna in Flagstaff, but I do think that we are the only ones here.... The man that lives here was very nice when we came in. He told us where to get THE best steak ever.  It really was the best I have ever had.  Dad and I figured it was probably so good becuase it wasn't pumped with hormones and they were't corn fed.  In the morning we have breakfast from 7-9 I think he said.  It is made at his home which is on the same property, a dairy farm.  Our friend Carol stayed here last time she came with Courtney and recommended it.  Apparently the breakfast is really good because everything is so fresh.
