How can I share about our time exploring the Caribbean (read about it here, here & here) without mentioning the beach?! Here are several pictures of us loving the beach just across from where our cabin was. It really is a beautiful beach… I was thrilled to see how clean and clear the water was there. Much cleaner than the Pacific side… which is pretty much always brown.
Anyway, we had so much fun playing in the ocean. Especially Tabi… she LOVED it and wasn’t afraid at all while Naomi was a little timid. She didn’t want to go into the water for a while, but we finally were able to encourage to get in with us and she enjoyed it very much. The girls loved getting dirty with the sand (of course!) and
The morning before we left to head back home I decided to collect some ocean water in several bottles to take back with me. Why?
Because I remember finding a blog that showed how you can make your own sea salt. I thought… why not? It can be a fun project, but I don’t know when I am going to get around to doing it! We are packing and getting ready for our move to Honduras. So exciting, yet feeling a little nervous too.
Anyway, enjoy the pictures :o)

Our bottles of ocean water… sea salt coming soon!
I just came across your blog and love it. I went to Costa Rica for my honeymoon five years ago and fell in love. We hope to go back with our children one day. I want to know how the sea salt venture goes! 🙂
Take care,
Erica
Welcome Erica!! Hope I see you around. Yes, if you do come back to Costa Rica… GO to the Caribbean… so much nicer than the pacific!! I tried out my salt today and it seems to be a success!!!!! I will post it for sure soon :o)
I miss the beach. I forgot to take some water too when I was in Boracay. 🙂
