This past week my host family took a few day vacation to the beach. We took a 15 passenger van (filled at one point with 15 people, which was crazy in itself) on a 6 hour drive to the beach! The fist beach we stopped at, Puntarenas, was a touristy beach, with lots of people and vendors. The second beach however was private. We stayed in Gaunacaste right next to the beach. We rented two cabanas that shared a pool. The trip was complete with lots of yummy mangoes, way too many mosquitoes, and lots of jelly fish on the beach! It was great having so many family members share the vacation together. There were cousins, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nephews and siblings. The concept of a family is a beautiful thing. Being away from mine for a while has made me appreciate them all the more and I cannot wait to spend time with them when I get home! : D
