With all this rain and cold we’ve been having, I’ve been craving some sunshine and spring.{Or sweet memories of the tropics, at least!}Thought you might be, too.Would you believe I still have a few days’ worth of pictures from Costa Rica to share? It’s true, I do.These were taken at the resort where we stayed...
oh with 6 inches of snow expected tonight – I can ONLY dream of spring!!
Oh, I hear you! We have more snow on the way this weekend and as much as I love snow and winter, I am ready to not need 35 layers to go outside!
Our temps are spring like, but sheesh, I really need some sunshine – it’s been rainy and gloomy. And yeah for more Costa Rica pictures! Thanks so much for hosting!
Such lovely shots.
Oh my. I can’t wait for spring to arrive and bring along with it some color, warmth, and flowers! So sick of the boring winter.
Lovely flora! The first image looks like a flower we had in Thailand. It was called a needle plant. They were often given to teachers because they were “sharp” intellectually! 
These are gorgeous! I can feel the warmth!!
Mmmm, yes.
Needed that!
Could almost
feel the sunshine
on my shoulders
and smell the
fragrance….
Happy Saturday!

After spending the morning zip lining, and a delicious lunch back at Jungle Camp, we decided to explore the rainforest on the other side of the river. The only way to get to the other side without getting wet was to take this basket that was suspended across the river. It is used by native...

you are an adventurous spirit girlie. i just signed up my girl to go to a youth retreat with the church. she really knows no one. i’m hoping she forms some really strong bonds and makes new friends too. pray with me that that happens.

What a gorgeous place. I love how much fun you had. It looks like the day was filled with fun and laughter! Awesome.
Oh, such sweet tweets, and just some incredible memories made here!
I know… feels like this trip will never end, right? ;) It actually went by very quickly for us. Saturday through Saturday with six full days of adventure activities. Puts “vacation” in a whole new perspective. On this particular day, we hiked up from jungle camp, a little deeper into the jungle, and spent the...

We paddled over two hours down the River Pacuare to reach our Jungle Camp. It was beautiful, really. In a very rustic sort of way. It sat up on a mountainside, in the heart of the rainforest, over-looking the river. We fell asleep and awoke to the sounds of the jungle… birds, insects and the...

I know I said it before, but what an adventure, Patty! Tho, 2-hours of paddling makes my arms burn. Gorgeous shots, as always. I think Costa Rica would certainly be proud!
As I was looking at and reading your post, Patty, I was thinking, “Wow, now that is living real life!” And to find out that this place is called Pura Vida. I have loved all of these posts about Costa Rica that you have shared. Thank you! Stay safe with the ice out today!
Just looking at these amazing pictures warms me up on this frigid, frigid morning! Thanks for hosting the link-up!
I’ve always wanted to go to Costa Rica. These photos are awesome!
What a wonderful trip!
Incredible! I love the candle light images. What a fantastic experience for you all!
Amazing place and photos! Looks so wonderful. I could do without the spider though…Yikes!
Wow, what an AMAAAAAAAZING adventure and experience!
Ahhh, I am so loving these photos and your adventure and I don’t want it to end…
I do so love the photos he took of you all at the table at night, so beautiful! And that spider looks like some of the ones around here in Texas…yes everything is bigger here! haha
Looks like a fabulous time! You can keep the spiders, but the orchids are stunning! Isn’t everything centered around the kitchen ?
What a once in a lifetime experience! These photos are amazing! I think the whole candlelight experience would just be the ultimate. My wife and I are thinking about a trip to Costa Rica and reading your blog just makes me want to go all the more!
