Crazyness of my week off school!

For American Thanksgiving our school - In Costa Rica - had one week off. Don't ask me why becasue I do NOT know. Anyways, my mom had been planing this trip for some time and it worked out great.
We left on Sunday on took a day trip to a place in "Alajuela" called Pura Vida inn. (My familly had some... dificulty pronouncing "Alajeula", it was pretty funny yet at the same time misrible! ^_^) When we got there, we were all exhausted from the trip, it took a LONG time to get there. It was a beatiful place with gardins and very cute little houses that we slept in. For dinner we went to this adorible little restraunt called... ok I am a devil for not remembering but the title had something to do with a 'princess' and a 'marina'. Places in Costa Rica are very strange. The food was remarkable and I would recommend the place for anyone. We would have eaten at Pura Vida but you had to let them know you would be there 24 hours prier, we only gave them 12. They said TOUGH BEANS! Or something with that gist. Hehe. The first day there we went to this Zoo. The Zoo was very interesting but it was nit a normal zoo. We got to feed Toucans and we saw the most amazing birds. It was a magical indoor tropical rainforest. That was only one part. There were monkeys - one kissed my mom - and wild cats and a waterfall. Everything there was absolutly beautiful. If people come to visit, that is were we will take them. This was late afternoon. In the morning we went to a volcano called 'Poaz'. The volcano would have been cool but we could not see a thing. It was far to clouded over. It was a drag and it would have been a total waste of time if we did not hike. There was a trail that led through some rainforest. It was a very cool hike. The trail was paved - surprisingly - and the scenery was beautiful. It was were you would shoot a movie or something.
After the long day we were happy to retire to our little cabin/room. The dinner was amazing! I would say the best I have ever had. It was 3 courses. The first was an apatizer, a guacamole paste with curry powder and some shredded cucumber on the side. I could have had that alone and I would have been satisfied. The mane course was several peices of tender lione about the size of your thumb in mashed potatoes with spices. I died and went to heaven... Desert was ssssssssssssssssssooooooooooooooo good. It was all home made. It was a rasberry velvet cake with hand whipped icing and a blackberry on top. I would have eaten all night if my dad didn't stop me. I was begging all night to go back.
Two nights passed and we moved on to our next destination. It is now wednesday. There was this beautiful retreat back lodge called 'Rara Avis'. It was the necest back-country llodge I have ever went to and the meals were also amazing - nothing compared to what we had at Pura Vida but still good. Even though the lodge was amazing and the food was spectacular NEVER IN ONE MILLION YEARS GO THERE!!! Why you ask? The road getting there. It was the worst road I have ever been on. It was hell. It was a 4 HOUR TRACTOR RIDE! You could not go in your own car because it was too bumpy and you could walk it but that would be tireing - horses,forget about it. I couldn't even listen to music. The bumps on the road would knock the buds out of my ears. I will never return there. I did get a lot of writing done though. Writing my story that is. I will explain but that is for a different post. While we stayed there we did a series of hikes. They were great but each one made me want to lay down in bed and never get up. They made me so tired. One of the highlights was the waterfall. The water was near glacial temperatures but I stil swam. It was exhilerating. Another thing I noticed was our tour guide, Berny, and the housekeeper, Kathrine, are too perfect for eachother - they just don't know it yet. The hikes and the waterfall visits took up another two days so here we are on Firday, going to Cartago to see NEW MOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The movie was in English and even though they had Spanish subtitles it was still AWESOME! \i cried, in the movie theater when Edward left Bella. *Sniffle Sniffle*. I still LOVED the movie with all my heart though. After the movie we went to have dinner beside our newest BnB. My Quesedia sucked so I ate most of my friends' dinners. I met 3 of my friends for the showing of New Moon, Brittany, Ali and Lily. It was Brittanys bday a week ago, Nov. 20th, the real release date of New Moon but in Costa Rica everything happenes slower. Its sad, really. So we postponed her bday party a week and then headed out for the movie and a fun night. When we got back to the BnB we left to our room. Us 4 girls got our own room. That was awesome. We had a good night after all but we went to bed earily, 10:30pm, because we were tired and there was nothing to do.
So here I am, blogging, at 11:11pm - actually - after watching Wolverine and I am very tired because it is Satuday night and I was in the car for a very long time today, I bid all GOODNIGHT!
Sincerely,
Abby!
