New Years Eve in Costa Rica

We spent New Years Eve at the Villa of Mary Ange and Edward. They live at Playa Villas Samara which is right on the beach. The boys had a great time as they swam in the pool, enjoyed cool drinks at the swim up bar and then later watched the bonfires and fireworks right on the beach. As there are no regulations here about that sort of thing, I can honestly say it was the closest any of us have ever been to fireworks!

The party was lovely but for those of us in the tropics; staying up till midnight is quite an accomplishment. We didn't think we would make it and it was hilarious at midnight. We all wished each other Happy New Year, kiss, kiss and then goodnight and goodbye. We all went straight to our cars and home to bed! Some party animals we turned out to be...





Here's a picture of our hosts Mary Ange and Edward; one of me in my new San Jose dress! and some of the guests with John; the boys with their friend Kosta and one of Sherry and Larry.











Happy New Year to everyone - It seems I'm just in time for Chinese New Year so enjoy!
