Day 5 - Just Another Day

Nothing to report today, just more of the usual: run, walk, relax, swim, read, eat, drink, sunset.  This morning at low tide Kate, Greg and I combed the beach for shells - it's like looking for treasure! In addition to finding several great shells, Kate found a perfect sand dollar and asked if it was worth anything... I remember thinking that as a kid too!

We walked around the hostel part of town looking for (cheaper) surfing lessons. (What we found was the same price as the guys hanging out at the beach in front of the hotel.). Do not come to Tamarindo on vacation during the wet season and stay in a hostel!  These were up a hot, dusty road far from the beach. And the ones with A/C only allowed you to use it at night.  Tamarindo would be unbearable without A/C! 

Last night we tried to watch one of the movies from the condo. Jeremy was excited at the selection and couldn't narrow it down. We popped it in and were confounded by what played on the screen... a video recording of a movie screen. Wait, it gets better. The videographer has skills!  He got the seat in from of him but not the heads of the actors!  Our guide in Peru tried to describe this to us but it was lost in translation - until we saw it firsthand. Classic!!
