Are you tired of the cold weather? Now is a great time to get away. I recently took a week off and spent it in Costa Rica. What a beautiful country!
I am guessing many of you have done a winter vacation to Mexico, but you need to check out Costa Rica. Not only was the weather nice, in the 90’s all week, but the scenery is gorgeous. And what is scenery without wildlife? We were entertained daily by the Howler Monkeys that hung out in the mango tree above our pool and you had to watch your step as the iguanas would pass by your feet.
If you don’t want to just sit back and watch the waves crash up on the black sand beaches, there are plenty of tours offered. The group I went with decided to do the Canopy Tour complete with a water slide and horse back riding, a River Tour to see crocodiles and a private boat tour on the ocean. Although seeing crocodiles as up-close as we did was cool, I would have to say that the White-faced monkeys stole the show. These playful little guys would jump onto the canopy of our boat and hang down to get a closer look. During our small boat tour to do some snorkeling, we came across a dolphin pod! I have swum with dolphins before, but seeing them in the middle of the ocean and having them swim along side your boat is surreal!
After a great week, it was time to get back to work. Now I am busy with our arena sponsorships in Maple Grove, Minnetonka and Brooklyn Park.
