Tamagringo

Cute town, but way too touristy!

Today we drove two hours to the most touristy place in Costa Rica: Tamagringo (Tamarindo)! When we got there Mom and Auntie Aimee left us to do their own shopping and Tobin, Uncle Jeff, Dad, Lenox and I waked along the main drag. We got smoothies, looked through all the shops and rented surf boards. All the shops were expensive so I didn't get anything and anyway, Christmas is coming up! The waves for surfing were so super small so I didn't really get to stand up on my board that much! Also the first board I got was too light for my body weight so I kept sinking! So I rented a different one that was better but like I said the waves weren't even good! After that we went to this restaurant that had just opened the day before. It was outside where you had a view of the river and the beach and had a bunch of cool white lights. On the way home we saw an Auto Mercado and stopped at it. I love the Auto Mercado! There was another shop right beside it selling fireworks so we got some too! When we got home we watched the sun set while eating dinner and then went to bed.
