A Very Full Weekend

Posted on May 20, 2019 by

Mother’s Day at the Ballpark

Posted on May 13, 2019 by

In case you didn’t know, where I live, Sunday was Mother’s Day. Having taught people from all over the world, I know that the second Sunday of May isn’t Mother’s Day everywhere–though I wonder why we weren’t able to agree … Continue reading →

Posted on April 22, 2019 by

Beaches to Bars

Posted on February 17, 2019 by

HaveOur next day, and last full day in Puerto Viejo, was a relaxing beach day. Apparently, there was enough money in the budget to rent bikes for everyone and head to Manzanillo beach. It wasn’t a great distance away, but … Continue reading →

Best Friends

Posted on December 31, 2018 by
