Update


















why hello everyone this is jenna with the update on amazing costa rica. Let me first say that if we didn't have a place in flagstaff or have to go to that thing called school we would definitely not be coming home. we left our cabina on top of that hill with the most beautiful view ever. we then ended up in Uvita (a few miles south from where we just were). this is an awesome neighborhood, people ride there horses everywhere and there is a lot of land that the people live on and it definitely gives you that local feel. where we are it is about a 600 meter walk to the beach with good surf and swim with a perfect low tide. we have really just been going to the beach everyday, there is a point called the whales tales where you walk out on the sand bar and get to look at tide pools. we have been reading a lot and playing a lot of card games and it has been fun watching trey surf, let me tell you he is getting really good. the waves are big here! and on the 4th of july not to freak anyone out but a dead body surfed onto shore, the cops non nonchalantly put the green body in a plastic bag and drove off, and the day before there was a cocaine bust with 300 kilos in a boat. we are safe don't worry, Tracy and i have our men with us... (they have gotten pretty skinny though). Brinton you would love it here there is the best skimboarding beaches ever!!! to bad they don't sell skim boards. umm and last night we had the amazing idea to give me dreadlocks. you can all laugh now but there is no going back now... missy if you could call carli for me and set up a hair appointment when i get back that would be great (aug 1st ha ha) ! there are so many stray dogs here, i think that we would have way to many animals if we lived here because they all seem to follow me. (don't worry spur you'r still my number one) there is this one dog and he walked with us to Rio Uvita today (a long walk) and right now he is laying right next to me at this cafe. we will have another post in a couple days about a 2 hour horseback ride to a waterfall, then we are headed to panama! we love you all
PURA VIDA

The pictures are incredible! The scenery is so very beautiful! It looks like you are having a blast. Now that is an interesting cow! I have never seen one with ears like that. Do you suppose she is related to a lop eared rabbit, ha? And, looking under the belly and behind the cow, do I see what might be a calf? FUN, FUN, FUN!
