Halle back again for our last day in NYC. We started out the day with a 9:30 “brunch” at Balthazar, which was pretty good but I don’t think anyones favorite. We then split up where Grace and Sarah went to walk the high line, and mom and I went to Macys to look for a…
Saturday brought the rain back with it. We ate breakfast at Black Seed bagel. Halle and I shared the most delicious cinnamon raisin bagel with homemade almond butter and jam. I wish they sold that almond butter. It was more like super finely chopped almonds than a smooth butter. I could have eaten a whole…
Cronut day! The magic of NYC really delivered this time. The Cronut flavor of the month was Passionfruit. Which we all know is Sarah’s favorite flavor ever. It was delicious, as always. We wandered through Chinatown, walking inside a Buddhist temple and checking in on all the chintzy tourist shops. We jumped on the subway…
Halle here–After a much needed sleep in morning, we headed to Oakberry Açaí for breakfast. You could pick your toppings and it was really good! It was already raining as we headed to the Met, and we were glad we got tickets ahead of time because the line stretched down the block. The art was…
After 25 long pandemic months, we finally got to take our girls trip to NYC. And what a time we had! Our flight started off as a bit of a fiasco. It kept getting bumped further and further back. Southwest had cancelled like 1000 flights over the weekend, so I was not feeling very hopeful….
Saturday morning Tara and I woke up to finish our scuba certification right in Manuel Antonio. We left from the Quepos dock and set out to finish. This experience couldn’t have been any more different. There were 20 of us crammed into a tiny boat. The leader of the entire expedition was a 19 year…
Rusty again– Friday was our tour of manuel antonio national park. This day was what I call “Roasting day”. The entire day was SO HOT and I was just roasting the entire day. We hired a tour guide through Jade Tours. Apparently at this park most everyone has a tour guide to point out the…
Josh here–On our first day in Costa Rica we got up somewhat early, ate breakfast, and got ready for a day of zip lining. I was super excited for this day because all the pictures of the place looked incredible and I was looking foreword to being out in the rainforest. The place we went…
Halle here–We had another long drive on a bumpy dirt road to get to the Kids Saving the Rainforest animal sanctuary, but it was super worth it! We started the day doing a tour of the sanctuary with our guide, and he told us lots of cool stories and facts of the animals they had…
Rusty here–Thursday was Caño Island. We started the hour drive down the coast to Uvita where we got all our scuba stuff. This was a five star operation where everything was taken care of for you, and everything was first class. We walked across the beach to our boat out into the surf. This part…
