We arrived in Costa Rica on Sunday afternoon after a very long day of travel. We had a great driver who gave us a lot of history from the drive from San Jose to Jaco. We stopped about an hour into the trip at the Crocodile Bridge. There was a small fruit stand where we picked up smoothies, plantain chips and a cold adult beverage! The river below the bridge contains about 3,000 crocodiles, they were huge. I did not get any pictures as I did not go on the bridge, it was pretty high. After that stop we took at quick break in Jaco to grab essentials and then onto the house. We all need to hit the water after a long day of travel and it was off to the beach! The water is very warm but it gets dark extremely early so we were back to the house for dinner and bed. Our first full day here was spent at the beach, pool, house, beach and pool again. Another quick trip to the grocery store and dinner. A great time had by all on the first day!
