March 29-30th, 2019 This morning it was raining, and we had to pack up a wet camp. We shook the tent and everything else out as much as we could before loading everything up and making the drive back to San Jose. We spent the morning on the road until we got back to the…
Stops
Day 53 – Rio Celeste, Costa Rica
March 28, 2019 Since we arrived at “Posada Rio Celeste” after dark the night before, we got up excited to see our surroundings. This hotel/campsite was very cute with gardens, a restaurant, hammocks, dogs, and even 2 pretty birds that would mimic you. Brendan and I went for a jog and saw a bit more…
Day 52 – Costa Rica
March 27, 2019 After eating our last breakfast at the hotel and spending ample time saying goodbye to our “bed” while taking several pictures of us in the bed, we checked out and started on our next journey. At the hostel where we stayed at the first night in San Jose, we saw an advertisement…
Day 51 – Jaco Beach, Costa Rica
March 26, 2019 After another great breakfast, we got ready for a day trip to Jaco beach. The beach was about 2 hours away and we got to see some more of Costa Rica from the car. Jaco beach was a cute little town with many shops and restaurants. We walked around the town a…
Day 50 – San Jose, Costa Rica
March 25, 2019 Today we got up and enjoyed the most amazing buffet breakfast that our room came with. I think we each made two trips and ate until we couldn’t anymore. Feeling great after a good night’s sleep and big breakfast, we set out to explore the area in our rental car. We cruised…
Day 49 – San Jose, Costa Rica
March 24, 2019 For our birthdays, my Mom and Chris treated us to 3 nights in a beautiful hotel in San Jose. We rented a car for the week and headed to the hotel. Even though the house-over-the water in Panama was incredible and clean, sleeping in a room with no bugs, cold AC, and…
Day 48 – Panama to Costa Rica
March 23, 2019 Brendan’s birthday! Unfortunately, it wasn’t as jammed packed with fun activities as mine because this fell on a travel day for us. We had to leave Panama and make our way back to Costa Rica. We packed up from the beautiful over-the-water house and made our way to the water taxi where…
Day 47 – Bocas del Toro, Panama
March 22, 2019 Our last full day in Panama together with Mike and Kellee. Tony and Lana offered to take us out on their boat for the afternoon which was really awesome. We went to a floating island bar that had great drinks and tacos. In the middle of pristine waters, we all hung out…
Day 46 – Bocas del Toro, Panama
March 21, 2019 Today we decided to have a rest day and take it easy. We headed to town on the 11am water taxi and stopped by the dive shop where Tony generously let us borrow his truck. We took the truck to ‘Skullys’ a cool hostel on the beach that had a pool. We…
Day 45 – Bocas del Toro, Panama
March 20, 2019 Day 45 (3/20/19) Another day waking up in paradise. The mosquitos were the only thing that reminded us that sometimes paradise comes at a price. Each night we had battles with massive amounts of mosquitos. There was no way to keep them out of the house even with bug nets, or our…
