To start...

Living in Central America for the past 4 years has certainly had its ups and downs. I would definitely have to say though more ups than downs. Right now we are residing in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica in a apartment surrounded by trees and monkeys which is pretty nice. Damien, came into our lives just over a year ago and recently took the very honourable position of official Dive shop dog. It was definitely a hard decision for him as his time spent on the beach most days watching the surfers and playing in the waves will be missed. Everyone has to work at some point though and he still gets his days off. Upside of working is he has never had so much attention and the art of positioning oneself in the center of the floor when clients arrive for maximum attention seeking, was a skill picked up on very quickly. Next step is to conquer the fear of steps in the port and finally get on the boat for a trip.
