It may be that we have decided to shift our surroundings to a place where there are more opportunities for our girls; but that doesn't mean we haven't had a lot of fun while we've been here. Many exquisite things have satisfied our senses over the last seven years, enriched our bodies and minds. Of everything wonderful that we are saying fair well to here, it is the good people who we will miss the most.
The cultural side of Costa Rica that we will cherish having had the opportunity to live in is the hard working agricultural side. We have met some sensational families here who we admire greatly. They are humble people who know how to work the land, how to raise coffee and cattle, commute on horses and can ward off the danger of the deadliest serpents with one quick swing of their machetes.
It is always nice to see a pretty view and play at a gorgeous beach. But those things are all over the world. The reason we will return to Costa Rica for a visit is to stay connected with the special people we have had the honor of acquiring as friends. They are exceptional individuals who have graciously welcomed us into their community and who have made this journey totally worthwhile.
