Vacation at Volcano Arenal


It was just as beautiful as it looks here! This was the view out our front porch each morning...clear and beautiful. On Tuesday night, we were able to see the glow of lava come down the side several times.

We left on Monday morning for our trip to Volcano Arenal and stopped at Denny's for a little American flavor...Grits! This is the first grits we have had since leaving in April.

Don't we look relaxed? And it is just the beginning of the vacation! It was indeed a relaxing time.

Did I say relaxed? If you look closing in the tree you will see David being hooked to his final of 16 ziplines. Don't know if I would say relaxed because he's been sore for two days now?! But it was fun, or so I hear! Me? No, I'm too relaxed for that kind of fun.

Thanks so much for your prayers for our rest. We are getting some much needed rejuvenation from an intense trimester of Spanish classes. We look forward to some time at the Pacific next week. We will update with pictures from there when we return. It is so wonderful to view the creation of God. He is amazing! All for His glory and enjoyment- and our enjoyment too!
