Early Flight at Sunrise

We joined our daughter, daughter-in-law and 4 of the grandchildren on a flight to Costa Rica today.  The flight was pleasant.....the grandkids slept most of the way.....they admitted that they had friends over last night and basically never got to sleep. I didn't get very much sleep either.....I always find one more thing to do at bedtime when we are going out of town. We are staying at the same hotel our group stayed at last November when we came here with a group of mostly Blippers to photograph the birds & wildlife of the Rain Forests. The hotel lobby had been completely remodeled last December; Anni, you would really enjoy the changes they made. There is a lovely large "gathering" area adjacent to a beautiful new U-shaped bar and a very nice dining room (it is about 4 times the size of the little area they had before).  We gathered at the bar after we checked into our rooms at 8; it was a perfect place for the 8 of us..The youngest 2 granddaughter just turned 18 so it was their first experience of legally ordering a alcohol drink .....we ordered food right away since the food had to be ordered by 9pm.......then we moved to the "gathering" area to eat our delicious food. The evening was relaxed....perfect......enjoyable time to talk about what time we would meet in the morning for a walk to the park. I hope we see as many birds as we did when we were here in the Winter. If nothing else it will be good exercise before we take the 3 hour drive to the north for two night in La Fortuna near Arenal Volcano.
