Costa Rica Part 3-Day 1

The starfruit again---picked from the tree at the bottom of our street.

Our first day was pretty leisurely. After getting in so late, most everyone slept in. Not me. I woke up at 6 a.m., went for a nice 7 mile run, ate a healthy breakfast and was dressed and showered by 8:30---just kidding. Unfortunately I did wake up at 6 a.m. I just kind of hung out until everyone woke up and got going. Then we headed in to Jaco to go to the farmer's market.
We loaded up on fruit as you can tell. Watermelon, pineapple, mango, bananas, limes---so much good stuff! And we also got some delish homemade granola and peanut butter cookies from the Mennonites.
We stopped for lunch at Laura's favorite place in Jaco, Taco Bar. We spent the rest of the day hanging out and going to the beach. That night we had dinner at a local restaurant in town. It was a pretty great first day!
