Posted by on March 26, 2015 at 5:01 pm

After weeks of school and afternoon adventures it is time to settle back into our own routine. The kids enjoy the slower mornings and picking their own food.   Behind our cabin are waterfalls you can climb or swim in. It is the dry season so the river is pretty low key.   Our cabin […]

this beach was very cool. Covered in shells. I love the sound of waves on shells. Sounds like the beach talking back to the crash of the water.  The kids collected shells, body boarded, and climbed on the volcanic rocks tide pooling. Lots of little critters hanging out.

there are iguanas everywhere here. Little ones and big ones. This one sitting with Jesse is, no joke, the size of a very large house cat.
