Costa Rica Day Three

All right! Let's head to the beach! Manuel Antonio was hotter and more humid than San Jose, so even a cloudy day (with showers) at the beach was great. The clouds helped to ensure that we wouldn't get a sunburn on our first day too.


As expected, Milo loved the beach. Let's take a moment to remember this fine, plastic salad bowl we brought from our hotel room. Milo smashed it to pieces with that very ladle only a few minutes after this photo was taken.


Damn, that's a fine-looking boy. Good genes. I was trying to get him with the family, so stepped back for a better shot, and before I knew it he was chasing me backwards. Hence the big smile on his face. And mine.


Speaking of smiles, I hope you can see his face here. He wasn't too sure about the waves after some bigger ones bowled him over, but it didn't take him long to get into it. Again, Mommy!


And after the beach we went up the hill to where my sister and the rest of the wedding party were staying. What a great view of the beach we had just left!


And imagine when it's sunny out! Tomorrow... our first monkey!
