We went to Chilamate for the weekend to be there for the meeting on Sunday. It's a little far from where we are staying so we went for the weekend. Also so we could spend some time with this sweet couple! We taught them to play Yahtzee and Spot it! :) We had a sweet little study together on Saturday and then everyone was together for meeting Sunday morning. Then we went to Quepos by Manuel Antonio National Park to meet up with Richard for a few more visits with some that have been listening. So very special to be able to tag along and see the word of God shared just as Jesus would have. It was fun to see Manuel Antonio because we haven't really seen to many tourist places yet. It's a very beautiful place!

My nueva amiga Rose Mary (Rosmy) We had such a fun weekend with this family!
There is about to be a lot of new butterflies at this farm! Or pretty soon no more leaf to eat...
Dona Beatrice was grinding corn to make corn tortillas.
Maybe this is why we love visiting this place! Super friendly dogs and sweet little kitties :) Always lots of help for Rosmy in the kitchen. This is my FAVORITE picture!! :)

This is Hotel Verde Mar that is owned by our friend Marlene. A very beautiful place close to the beach!

Nothing like the beach!
This is the dog Mapache that lives at the home we are staying. He's a great watchdog! We bought him a bone and gave him a bath so he's pretty happy! We have been taking him on walks too :) It's different for us cat lovers but it's fun taking care of dog too :)
Our first attempt at making Costa Rica style meal. Soup with rice beans and chicken. Although I found out later that actually the beans and rice should have been separate ;)
After all the rice and beans, we have been craving veggies. The bread is something we bought from a very nice man who own a bread store. It's like cinnamon bread.
Time to give Mapache a bath and get rid of some fleas!
Our room :)
