We are off on another family trip, this time to the north west of Costa Rica. We flew from Toronto to Liberia. The kids did well on the airplane. Jasper and Ellis sat by themselves 2 rows back from the rest of us, and enjoyed being independent.
We rented a car that fits all 6 of us, and one kid gets to sit in the trunk with the luggage, which is a hit (it's a real seat, just only covers half the back row).
We stayed at a hotel in the outskirts of Liberia for the night, before a longer drive to Monteverde tomorrow. The kids are loving the outdoor pool with a cave and waterfall as well as the novelty of being able to swim outdoors after dark (it gets dark at about 6pm here).
It will take some time to get used to the 34 C temperature, but so far our trip is off to a good start.
