Today was a laid back day spent lounging by and in the pool. Ela was in the water for 6 hrs, Isaac for 4, the girls in and out. Zoe and Robert hiked to the beach, a sweaty trip in the afternoon to get coconuts. We finished the 200+ ranbutans Robert had bought. This part of Costa Rica is very humid but it has only rained during the night and for a few hours in the afternoon. I got sunburned a couple of days ago and wore a sunshine today but still got too much sun.
We had a night walk scheduled at Sukia Reserve but most of what we saw was a repeat of the previous hikes. The preserve is small and we felt sorry for the crocodiles in their sanctuary who were kept in ponds so small they could hardly move. The tour was not as interesting, and the guide had a strong accent which was hard for the kids to understand. I’d give this walk a 3 out of 5.
We had dinner at Samui Thai; the food was pretty good. Isaac fell asleep after his dinner. Ela was still bouncing around, and Nina entertained us all. It was convenient to hail Ubers. The guide had told us taxis are way too expensive.
