We returned to Atenas and our wonderful temporary family for a couple nights. Dale, Heisa, and their kids were all awesome and welcoming! We were fed delicious home-cooked meals and slept in an apartment by their pool! (The first couple pictures are of their place.) We learned a lot about the friendliness of "Ticos" (that's Costa-Rican slang for the locals) and we are counting you as (an honorary) Tico, Dale!
So, we paused to watch the Seahawks, who made it into the playoffs. Sadly, they lost the game by one point in the last 20 seconds or so. Boo. After,Derek and I doubled-up and Dale took my bike, and we went looking for some views of the sunset to cheer us up.
Dale happens to own two other properties nearby, both with amazing views, one with a killer sunset! We also stopped at a little cafe with an okay view :)
