Day 5...

 The day started off with the best breakfast to date! Then we went kayaking, I went with Jamie and it was a lot of fun. We found a treasure out there, a lonely coconut that we rescued. We then went on a catamaran ride(I went twice.) It was really fun to talk to the captains in Spanish, especially the second one! We did some reading on the beach too.

Day 4...

 Today we went and swam with dolphins which has been the highlight of the trip. We had 2 dolphins named Luna and Ariel. We watched a parrot show that I got to participate in(bowled a strike) and then we went to the Sea Lion show. Another fun evening too!

Day 3...

Today we had a yummy breakfast again, got our pictures taken with some parrots, and then we spent the majority of the day shopping for souvenirs for our kids along the beach a few resorts down. A few of the sellers were really nice, some got pushy and even a little mean at the end. We also ran into Monkey man who wanted us to get our picture with our own camera for $20. I offered him $1 and he freaked out. His monkey broke my bracelet that I made with my dad...sad times. I think Jace and Cole are really going to like their wood sharks. I got Gracie some bead bracelets and Kristin a Ladimar rock.

Day 2...

 Breakfast was awesome, loved the omelet. Then we ventured outside were we saw machete man chopping down coconuts. So, of course we had to get a picture with him, he let me hold his machete, gave us a fresh coconut to drink and taught me how to climb a coconut tree. Then we headed out to zip-line. It was awesome driving through the little humble towns, seeing people bath in reservoir water, sell fruit on the streets, hang their meat to dry, etc. Zip-lining did not disappoint. There were 15 platforms with a little walking/hiking in between each one. Then we got dressed up and had dinner at the Italian restaurant which was so yummy, loved the mozzarella sticks. They had a dance on the beach, and we danced ALL NIGHT LONG. Stephanie, Shalane and I even entered the limbo contest and I was a finalist! I will probably be sore tomorrow. Then we went for our first nightly swim! So fun!
