Feliz Navidad!

Merry Christmas Everyone! We are in Dominical right now and are having a great time. Yesterday Lucas and Ronen (one of our friends) went surfing while Lindsay layed on the beach and drank a coconut (We have a very hard life right now). Last night for Christmas dinner we went out for Thai food with 10 other people and then we all went to a carnival. It was probably the smallest carnival we had ever seen. After the carnival we all went down to the beach and made a bon fire. Lucas accidentally stepped on some wood from a previous fire and got a horrible burn on the bottom of his feet. Lindsay had to walk back to the fair at about 1:00 AM to try and find some ice for the pain since there were no stores open. Lucas´s burn is feeling much better today but he can´t walk on his feet so we will have to lay low today. Hopefully by tomorrow he can put shoes on so we can go to our next destination. The night before last, we played an Isreali card game called Yaniev with some friends and then went to a discoteque and danced the night away. It was really fun to watch all of the locals dance, they all know how to salsa and they are really good at it. Before we came to Domnical, we were in Quepos for a few days and it is a very touristy place. We went to Manuel Antonio National Park for the day on Friday to see the wildlife. Unfortunatley, the park was extremely crowded so it was hard to find the animals. We went off the main trail and hiked trails that nobody else was on. There we were able to see a lot of wild life. Lindsay got so close to a monkey that it made the monkey mad and he looked like he was about ready to jump on her so we quickly ran away. We also a bunch of huge iguanas that were really cool. Tomorrow we are leaving Dominical to go back to Orosi for a few days to visit our Tico friend (if Lucas´s foot can handle it). It should be a really good time. Well we hope all of you are having a great Christmas and we miss you all!

Happy Xmas
Merry Chrismas Lindsay and Lucas. Sounds like things were fun last night. Minus the burn incident. Lucas I hope your foot is feeling better. Go see a doctor if it starts to blister. That means it's pretty serious. Mom and dad went to church and left me behind. We had french toast this morning for Christmas breakfast. Wish you were here. Have a great Christmas day. Love always, Andrea

x-mas fun
Hey guys!! I went with Justin and Mer down to Pipers and celebrated Christmas. I got vicki her favorite beverage, and I got Dennis a whole rabbit. We found a picture of Dennis rabbit hunting in the eighties and taped it to the rabbit. Dennis had fun making the rabit 'run'. We missed you, and toasted to you guys a few times. :) Chad was impressed with Merediths tree on Christmas day. Thankx Nate Dogg. Anyway, I am working on my January work sample, have fun. Lukie!!! Fix those feet! Lindsay!!! Stay away from too many UV rays:) Christmas Carol
