The Flamingo Hotel Resort (click to view)

Today is our last day of Spanish class. I am ready to be done with studying and now start exploring the country. I almost learned too much information and need a chance to digest it all. On the bus ride to school we saw monkeys on the side of the road. It was really cool. There were even babies!

After class we headed over to the Flamingo Hotel Resort and had lunch at the Monkey Bar. Afterwards we just spent the afternoon swimming and sunning. The pool has a swim up bar so Mark and the kids swam up and had an ice cream sundae.

I met two girls who were vacationing from Atlanta. We hung out until about 4:30 PM and then caught the 5 PM bus back to the villa. Darby and Grayson have become so fond of Victor the bus driver.  He found us at the resort and gave each of them a stuffed animal to remember Costa Rica. He was so nice!

We had dinner at that great restaurant Marco Polo again and there were lots of CPI students there having dinner. We got all of our clothes and suitcases packed up and were ready to head out the next day.
