Just wanted to start this post off by saying Avesh says hola to Tarini and he actually did not fall in but he did push his guide in which was me. But it is ok Tarini it was all good fun and the water feels nice and refreshing.
Also I wanted Alden to know that when you come to Costa Rica we promise to take you rafting. You will love it. We will get you down safe and make sure you get really wet. I will also make sure the monkeys wave to you when we pass by in the raft.
We just arrived to the final hotel of this adventure. It is a great spot located with a great view of the Arenal Volcano. When we arrived it was super clear and the sun was setting. We will have pictures of this in the morning we were getting the kids checked in and did not get a picture in before it got dark. Tomorrow is a big day of doing zipline that is 700ft high, community service, Organic farm, and Hot Springs.
The Hotsprings will be quite the treat because this is one of Costa Rica's nicest 5 star resorts where we will be getting a day pass and the kids will enjoy the evening and a very nice dinner for our farewell meal. It has been an amazing trip and my sides literally hurt from laughing. I said it last year and I will say it again that I am really impressed with the Ridgefield kids. They are all so respectful, extremely smart, and very fun to be around. All of them agreed that the homestay has been the highlight of the trip. In just two short days at the homestays they talk about their families like they have known them for years.
Tell Ellie that the breakfast in Costa Rica is something called "gallo pinto" which is rice and beans mixed together with Lizano salsa and cilantro. The lizano salsa is really good. This is also served with plantains and eggs but the best parts of breakfast is the fresh fruit. The mango is incredible and a fruit called guanabana, guayaba, guava, pineapple, and so much more I'm getting hungry just writing this. Along with all of this Ellie is a cup of coffee that would put Starbucks out of business.
For dinner tonight it will be held at the hotel where we have a nice evening planned and we will be reading blog comments from today. Some of the kids got quite a bit of son and we told them to wear lots of sunscreen because we were going to be in the sun all day. We will probably be getting some Aloe. Enjoy your evening and thanks again for all the comments.
Sorry about the dates on the video. I went ahead and posted them without checking that part of the video so dont worry Jo Anne your eyes are fine. But if you are tired of working just come down for a vacation to Costa Rica. I will have to ask Juliana about her time machine we could have used it for the 3 hour bus ride today.
What another amazing trip from The Roth's. They are an incredible blessing to Ridgefield and they just fill in the
gaps for Costa Rican Resource. I like to think we dont have many things missing in our tours but if we could have a Roth Family and some Ridgefield kids join us on every tour it would simply be better.
