Costa Rica February 2004

---

This was a family vacation to Costa Rica. We swam, tried to surf, zip lined, went horseback riding and had great relaxing time. Family time like this hadn´t happened during the last ten years due to life! Aaron flew in from New York and Mary, Marc and I from Portland. I still remember Mary's face when she stepped off the zip line platform for the first time, fear followed by pure exhiliration. We also recieved a scare after telling locals how we waded into a creek and thier amazement that we had not seen alligators! We stayed up till 3 in the morning hoping to see the giant turtles come out of the ocean to lay eggs. The next morning Marc showed us their tracks in the sand. We probably missed them by a short time. Darn!

Wading the river
Locals warned us after wards about the alligators in the river.
