My oh my I am behind on my blog! I'm going to try and catch it up real quick today. This entry goes back to September 20th, and my trip to Manuel Antonio, which is one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen! Part of it is also a National Park, which we visited.
The water there is the definition of blue. Cristal blue, and much more calm than the water in Jaco. To say the least it was a lot more pleasant to swim in the ocean at Manuel Antonio, minus my sunglasses got swept away. Typical Riley move to wear them into the ocean. I also spoke to a lot more people here (in Spanish of course :)) than in Jaco. Life felt really calm, and peaceful there...the life of a surfer dude. One funny story from this trip that ended with my face turning bright red from embarressment happened like this:
So...we were playing in the water of course, and there was one point where I decided to sit down along the shoreline. I didn't realize until later that my bathing suit bottoms were FULL of sand. A couple of us decided to go into a store to get some juice and as I was walking I noted that my butt felt funny, like it was awkward to walk. I patted my bottom and realized that it was entirely filled with sand, which I'm sure to anyone else looked like I'd crapped my pants. haha gross imagery I know. Anyways, from that point I decided that I would back into a corner by the building and nonchalantly empty it out. I checked to see if anyone was watching, didn't see anyone and so went ahead with my plan. Right as the sand started to hit the floor I happened to look across the road at this construction worker la
ughing hysterically at me. Seriously, he had such a big grin on his face, and I'm absolutely positive that mine was bright red. I shrugged my shoulders at him, and so he laughed some more and jokingly covered his eyes. Another typical Riley moment. Pretty embarressing to say the least.
The rest of the trip was great...filled up on PB&J's to avoid spending money, and then that night we went out to a club since it was "lady's night." The next morning we got up early and went into the National Park to hike around. I got to see a bunch of monkeys there. Awesome!! They're so cute! The beach adventures just keep getting better and better; I can't wait for the next one!
