A Tropical Romance
The Costa Rican adventure continued in full force since I last blogged. My sweetie joined me for the rest of the vacation in Tamarindo and we had a wonderfully romantic and fun time. I was so excited to show him all my favourite spots in town and hit the beach together.
He got some wicked shots of me jumping in the water just after a sunset. He got this in one shot!
We stayed at the beautiful beach front Diria Hotel where we had a room with a gorgeous ocean view.
There's nothing like waking up and looking out at palm trees and turquoise water right from bed!
We loved our balcony and particularly enjoyed it when we needed a shade break from the hot sun.
My sunset beach walks are much better with J by my side. It sets up perfect conditions for the most exquisite ocean sunsets. Every single day the sun shines brightly starting at 6am and sets at exactly 6pm.
The photos don't do the sunset proper justice but you get the idea.
This is one of my favourite palm tree pics that J snapped one night.
I ate more than my share of papaya during my stay in Costa Rica.
Many days I ate a whole papaya for breakfast.
The beach is looooong and sandy with patches of silty volcanic black sand (there are over 100 volcanoes in Costa Rica).

The photos are gorgeous (and impressive), I saw them on FB! Glad you're having a good time! My favorite destination is anywhere warm near water. I'm not picky. I'm really not a fan of cold.

I've travelled all over the South Pacific and the island of Rarotonga ( Cook Island )still has my vote for "best tropical island". Yes, that's even over Bora Bora :) <br /><br />Costa Rica looks amazing! Thanks for Sharing!!<br /><br />Aloha from Maui!
You look so happy!
So adorable. Love the photos Heather, and glad you had a nice trip! :)

Thank you ladies!! :)<br />We had such a blast and I recommend Costa Rica for a vacation. <br /><br />Mandy - good to know about Cook Island. What was so great about it?
Very inspiring and the jumping photos are quite impressive! Congrats to you and your BF ...<br /><br />Also, I could practically taste those papayas!! Yum! Now Costa Rica is a definite destination for me asap.
You know you're a yogi when a fellow yogi takes breathtakingly beautiful pics of her vacation, and one of the things you notice are her awesomely spaced yogi TOES. Heathy, how the HELL did I notice that?! :) The first jumping picture is stunning, and you look so incredibly healthy and happy! I have got to get to CR!
