Random pictures

These pictures are in no chronological nor logical order. Just pictures. Enjoy.
Risto jumping at the waterfall in Pacifico, Coco Beach.
Our friends lived in a gated community in Coco and there was a wonderful waterfall in which you could go swimming. Wonderful during the wet season, stagnant icky water during the dry. The boys had so much fun jumping into the small pond.

Tuomas was brave to do it, too.
My friend Cindy and I hiked up the hill while DH was left in charge of the boys.
