On our first day in Costa Rica we decided to place our base in Alajuela and move out on day trips from there. We live at the basic Bed & Breakfast Arilapa.
It has a few houses for rent and a nice garden area with chickens and a rooster running free. I nice place for the kids to get used to the warm climate and the new sounds of a tropical country.
During our first day here we went to a place called Ojo the Agua wich is a local water park for kids to go to swim and play in the water. We went there by local bus and thus experienced how the ticos get from place to place. The park had 4 different pools for all ages and sizes. Horseback riding and even a trampoline. We had brought our own lunch that was mainly tomatoes, oranges and apples. The tomatoes had a really good taste!
The breakfasts at the place we are staying at is nothing for a vegetarian or vegan. It is mainly meat, rice and dairy products. I´ve stocked up on bananas and water melon so it should not be so bad with regards to the intake of calories during the morning hours. We are up before 8 AM !
