Exhausting day of travel, 1st day in paradise, & 1st potty outside = Costa Rica

Below are some pictures of our journey to Costa Rica. We will be having multiple adventures here for the next 11 days.

Simret on the airplane.

Simret at the airport before our second flight (an empty champagne bottle- hey it was after noon and we are officially on vacation)

Lance taking our lives into his hands (driving the rental car 4 hours to our hotel- it was an adventure let me tell you...but we made it!!!)

Simret downing a beer on the car ride to our hotel (not really - it was even opened yet).

traffic jam on the way to our hotel- in the middle of a rain forrest. There were waterfalls outside of our window.

the guest house that we are staying in.

Simret ready to go to the beach. Day 2

somehow her clothing came off?

Simret's 1st outside potty experience. Since our stay here, Simret has not worn a diaper. She has either been naked or has worn "Big Girl" panties. She has not had one accident... and has remained dry through both nights? Wish I would have known earlier that going to Costa Rica equalled her being potty trained. Good-bye laundering her diapers!!!

we pretty much have the beach to our selves.

Playing in the black sand.

I'm not sure that I have ever seen her have so much fun.

Simret & Lance

Letha & Shane- cannot wait to see you guys in a couple of days. The only packing advice I have is to pack light- the low at night is the mid-high 70's. Letha- all you really need is a swim suit and a skirt.
