Costa Rica - Where we Stayed

February 8th, 2010 at 1:11 pm by June -->

When we signed up for this trip we had no idea what kind of housing we would have. It turned out to be a really cool place to stay for a missions trip. This Bed and Breakfast which is called Casa De Franco houses most of the missions trips that go to the Abraham project. Franco is an awesome cook and made our meals each day for breakfast and dinner.

We had 4 girls in our room which was a tiny room with 2 sets of bunkbeds. My bed was super comfortable. We had a little bathroom in the bedroom. We also had some little cockroach friends that lived with us in our room.

The shower cracked us up because it was plugged in so we could have hot water. We were warned not to touch it or we would get a good shock.

The house was really neat. It had a beautiful back yard which we never went into because of the guard dog. There were some interesting birds or something that would wake us in the morning.

Costa Rica - Orosi Valley

On Sunday after church they took us to Orosi Valley. It was absolutely beautiful. Pictures don’t do it justice. It was probably the most beautiful place I have ever been.

There was a real estate sign on this property and I thought about making an offer.

Double Trouble

During their bath last night these two little angels flooded the bathroom so badly that it flooded the basement, too. Let’s just say that the downstairs ceiling is pretty much ruined in spots. (And no, I didn’t take this picture after it happened. I was a little bit too upset to think about pictures at that point.)
