Costa Rica Expedition

       Costa Rica Expedition By Chris Veno

            On Monday the group went to the Rec Center.  Doug and I went to the urgent care center to check on my sprained ankle.  At the urgent care center they took x rays on my ankle and determined it was only sprained.  On Tuesday we woke up at 5:00 and picked up Big John, then drove two hours to the airport.  At the airport I ordered a double cheeseburger from Burger King and it was tasty-nice.  Then we boarded the plane for Costa Rica.  On the flight to Costa Rica I sat next to Jon and we had some great conversations. 

          The first night in Costa Rica we walked around San Jose and ate dinner at Santa Clara, which is a bakery that is very good.  There are a lot of cool souvenirs in Costa Rica.  Then we went horseback riding.  We also went to Los Lagos to go swimming and it was awesome.  The next day we went zip lining and I hung upside down, beat my chest, and called like Tarzan!!  We had a lot of fun in Costa Rica. 

          On Saturday we went to the beach and went surfing and boogie boarding.  Alex, Isaac, Jon, and I had to be rescued by the lifeguard because we got taken out by a rip current.  Also at the beach, I was peeling and eating Tropical Almonds and they tasted like red bananas, which I love.  I also got a rad tan while in Costa Rica.
