And thus our trip came to an end.
The seventh day my mom was here, we braved the Costa Rica rainstorm to explore San Pedro and part of downtown. Dinner was Casa del Pie (obviously?)
The next day, we bussed to Puntarenas to take a private yacht to Tortuga Island to snorkel. It was as great as that sounds. They didn't make us wear life vests while we snorkled so it was easy to dive down to see the starfish, anenomes, sea snake, octopus, and hundreds of rainbow fish. It is the kind of beauty that just extends to everything else you see for a while.
We enjoyed lunch there, too, a fun boat ride back to the mainland and a fun dinner with Liz. I was sad to take mom to the airport the next morning at 4. And sorry Mauricio I dozed the whole way home. Tortuga wore me out.
Thank you so much for visiting me, Mom! It was the best birthday that I can remember, and like I wrote, I am notoriously bad at birthdays. I love you so much and can't wait to see you again.
