The Scoresby Scoop: Pinnacle Trip 2011- COSTA RICA

We have been to alot of places, but OMG there is just this amazing beauty about this little place called Costa Rica. Steve worked extremely hard this past year- with his job to earn this trip. It was well worth it! Seriously one of the most beautiful, romantic places on earth. Steve had to be in the top 2 in his management catagory in the territory. I know, a lot of jumbo- but that is within 9 states I believe. Anyways, it was awesome in itself that he qualified. We love our Aflac trips.
There is nothing quite like sleeping on the beach, listening to the waves and seagulls. RELAX!

One of the things we had to get used to was the sand. It wasn't white or pink-but black with gold specks. The first day we thought it was ash from the volcano but nope it was its natural color. We have never seen anything like it.

We stayed at the "Papagayo Hilton" about 30 minutes South of Liberia. It was an amazing all inclusive resort. We all had our own bungalows. All the food and drinks you want.

We would be sitting at the restraunt or bar and we would see all kinds of creatures. Monkeys, racoons and these giant things. Meet Pepe'. Creeped me out.

Here are some of our Utah friends that qualified to go.

Cheers! To good times, good friends, great company and an awesome vaca!

Here is Steve-o snorkeling. He loves it! A sting ray went right between his legs. Scared him a little.

The sunsets in Costa Rica are amazing! This is from the deck of our bungalow. There was a wedding one night,right by our bungalow at sunset on the beach. It was pretty cool to watch.

We did a couples message right by the beach. I highly recommend that to anyone who gets to experience such a tropical, beautiful place. I think I look and feel pretty relaxed.
