Nails, coconuts, barracudas and Oceana's

Rosalyne
Hey guys - today was an exciting day. First, we woke up and went swimming in the ocean. Then, we cleaned the house, and did some laundry. Then Dad and I did some Math homework. Then, mom and I went swimming again in the ocean. This time, we saw a barracuda jumping out of the water to catch a fish that was trying to fly away from him. Cool. In the afternoon, when we were swimming again, two wild dolphins came close to about 100 metres.
We ate hotdogs for lunch. Then Kcriziana and her mom Deeanna came for a visit and to give us a manicure and pedicure. After, we went to a party at Oceana’s (owned by a Canadian couple) and I ate a cheese burger with fries. Drank a Fresca. There were musicians playing even when the power was off for over an hour. I saw Naomi again, and this time she was playing the drums during the break. Imagine a four-year old playing drums. Then Susan and Andrew gave us a ride home and by that time, the power was back on!
Bye!

I missed the barracuda action and the dolphins. I tried fishing this morning with no success. I put the food on the table today. You’ll see the picture of the coconut I killed.

Going to the Oceana party was like attending the July 1st festivities in Wakefield. Same type of crowd-- old hippies from the 70s. That’s it for my report.

Bonjour - belle journée aujourd’hui. Comme Rosalyne a indiqué, nous avons vu beaucoup d’activités aquatiques impliqant un barracuda et des dauphins. Nous sommes allés à un genre de party du village, avec musiciens au restaurant Oceana’s. Tim et Rosie ont mangé un cheeseburger chacun et j’ai mangé du mahi-mahi à la Cajun. Super bon et frais. La foule de gens au party ressemblaient drôlement aux gens de Wakefield lors de la fête du Canada. Nous étions pas dépaysés du tout! Susan est venue placoter un peu. Elle est super gentille. Elle m’a fait part des commérages des gens du village que nous connaissions. Trop drôle. Jeudi soir, il y aura un super concert pour faire une levée de fonds pour les musiciens de blues qui sont sans revenu. C’est la 5e année pour ce festival et la vedette est Taj Mahal. J’avais oublié ce nom qui date des années 70. Susan m’a dit que bien des musiciens et musiciennes y seront pour faire un genre de Woodstock . Playa Zancuda is going to rock! Suzanne Thébarge est arrivée au Costa Rica maintenant et sera chez nous dimanche. On a hâte de la voir! Nous allons faire une visite guidée de la rivière lundi pour aller voir des crocodiles, en kayak….nous avons hâte!
