Dia Uno - My First Day!

We had an excellent first day in Costa Rica! Maggie and I woke up to a wonderful breakfast of assorted fruits including pineapple, papaya, banana, grapes, and strawberries! Yum! We took a walk through the neighborhood and found this..



Can you guess what we found? Yes, a Wal-Mart with everything that we could possible imagine. We are thankful that we live about 10 minutes away just in case we forgot anything!


Then we took a bus into San Jose...


We walked all around the city and found lots of markets and shops, like this...


Behind me is an ice cream and sorbet counter that a lot of the locals seem to enjoy. We spent a lot of time looking through all of the different shops. Thankfully, I resisted buying anything!

Then we asked one of the locals for a place to get a traditional Costa Rican plate for lunch. We had a great time at this corner restaurant that was delicious! Here is what we had...


Then our waiter surprised us with some Jello! It was all so so yummy!
We enjoyed our day trip into the city and we have big plans for the weekend ahead.

More to come! Love you all!!
