Costa Rica Journal - Tuesday, 5-26-09

The tow main goals of today were purchasing ingredients for tonight's dinner and finding a place to go swimming. We decided to head for Lake Arenal and we found a nice swimming spot near the bridge where we spent some time there getting wet, laying out in the sun, and playing music. The setting was a small beach that had quite a lot of litter on it. We cleaned it up as best as we could, all of the garbage was washed up from the lake, so its only a matter of time before its dirty again.

After swimming, we went to La Fortuna and bought some dinner ingredients and then made our way back to Guatuso. While we were driving, a police man pulled us over because Kevin and Heather were in the back of the truck. He let us go and told us to be careful.

Soon we were back home again and we began to prepare our dinner. Kevin worked on the fish and veggies for the tacos, Heather made a huge bowl of guacamole and I made some fresh limeade. Everything was ready by the time the Morgans came over. It was delicious and we talked for a few hours after we ate. Before they left, Amy helped us clean up. They seemed happy and content.
