COSTA RICA VACATION

MAL PAIS on the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica. Shannon, our daughter, and her boys, Caleb and Taylor went with us to Mal Pais, Costa Rica. This is where we've been for the last 11 days! Loved it! 

The Ocean....the water was like bath water!

The boys play in the ocean water while waiting for the ferry to arrive at Puntarenas 

The Ferry Ride to Nicoya Peninsula

The ferry boat to Nicoya Peninsula 

Puntarenas....village at the end of a peninsula where the ferry leaves for Nicoya Peninsula. 

The boys check out other "passengers" on the ferry! 

The coastline of Nicoya Peninsula from the ferry. 

Playa Naranjo ... where the ferry stopped to let us off. From here we traveled across the peninsula to the Pacific side and to the southern most point, Mal Pais.

Our Accomodations at Moana Lodge

Shannon and the boys are in a duplex style unit.  

Their porch has a hammock they spent quite a fun time in! 

Shannon in her room she is sharing with the boys. Larger and more storage than we have....but no air conditioning! They have a big bed...large enough for all three of them. But, there is a little bed for when Shannon can't take the "heat"! She claimed it was fine and that they didn't even need the fan some nights. (Yeah!) 

We rented a Toyota 4Runner. We never saw the paint color after the first day. The roads are dusty and very bumpy. This vehicle served us well! 

The grounds are lush and there are flowers everywhere....a hummingbird haven! 

There is Dorm and my room...at the very top, but the room closest to the pool! 

Poolside at Moana Lodge

We love the pool!
