La pura vida of Costa Rica

monkey hanging outFinally, some Costa Rica photos for you, friends.  One highlight of our trip was going horseback riding in the hopes of spotting some monkeys.  While I won’t ever do that again with a camera over my shoulder (or wearing strappy sandals – all I had), I did get some awesome photos of the beach and the monkeys.  As we came out of the forest and rode onto the beach, I was consciously committing it to memory.  Such a cool experience.  My horse, Lulu, was so sweet.

Besides those two excursions, everything else we did involved rest and food.  🙂relax

  2. Looks amazing Naomi! Love the monkey photos. You were way braver than I would have been to go kayaking with the alligators!

      Yeah, really I had no choice! It was either wait for everyone else in a strange place by myself or go…

    Those hammocks look amazing!!!

  4. That looks like a great vacation! Why was carrying your camera over your shoulder a bad idea? Did it fall off?

    • Naomi says:

      Oh, my lens doesn’t have a lock, so it kept extending all the way out and my camera was bumping and flopping around all over the place. I like the pictures but next time a little phone or point-and-shoot will be fine.
