Dear Travel Diary,
๐Tamarindo, Costa Rica.
Day 5 we started at what quickly became our favorite restaurant, Pico Bistro located on the side of the road right in front of the ocean. Leylah enjoyed building her own breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage, and fresh avocado while Matt went for the more traditional breakfast. He wants beans and rice every morning now. ๐คญ I settled for chicken and pasta as I'm not the biggest breakfast fan. The pasta was hands down the most favorable pasta I have ever had. So buttery and garlicy ๐คค Iโll probably be dreaming about the pasta soon. ๐.
Leylahโs volleyball team was playing in a tournament so we stayed inside most of the afternoon to watch the game and cheer them on. She truly has found a passion in volleyball and couldnโt be prouder of her. ๐โค๏ธ Thankfully we had the cutest 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom Airbnb with a private pool. Made for the perfect relaxation spot with a good book..
For a late lunch, we visited the individuals selling chicken skewers right in front of the ocean right near Pico Bistro. We fell in love with chicken skewers while driving around the jungle in Puerto Rico. One of our traditions has become finding the local spot and buying a few sticks and glad we could continue that tradition in Costa Rica..
