Dec 7 COSTA RICA

We have arrived in COSTA RICA! No worries, no exams, no more class! I am officially on winter break. Its so weird to be in such nice weather. We pulled into Caldera bay which wasn’t a town just some place we anchored for the day. Once we were cleared Me, Ali, Jocie, Sara, Kasie, Nina, Alissa, Kyle, Austin, and Patrick all got on a tenor and went ashore. We bartered for a ride to Jaco and got out of there by 10 and made it to Jaco around 11:15. The town of Jaco is very small and really there is nothing there but surf shop after surf shop and bars. We got to our hotel easily, checked in and headed to the beach to start the tanning and drinking. The beach was half a block away and had a bar on it. We got drinks and lay out in the sun. It was soo nice with the occasional cloud but I couldn’t complain. Made it into the water it was so warm. The waves were awesome too. A bunch of people rented boogie boards and surf boards. The beach wasn’t all that nice but I mean we were in Costa Rica. Spent a good portion of the day outside and then went back to the hotel for nap time and do some internet time. It was nice to just relax and do nothing for once. There was no stress, no drama, and no boat! Got ready and went out to dinner at this place called Wishbone. It was so good. I got this pita pocket thing. Mmmm. Then we went out to a bunch of bars and got home around 2 am.
