Nicaragua and Costa Rica Trip Day 9

We went to the infamous Africa Mia today!  We went when we were here 4 years ago and the kids still talk about it all the time.  It was just as fun this time and will provide conversations for years to come.  Some crazy Costa Rican with too much money decided to bring a bunch of animals over from Africa and create a animal preserve-Africa Mia.  It is great fun.  We got to feed carrots to all kinds of animals.  Afterwards we hiked to a beautiful waterfall.  It was kind of chilly out, so we decided we would just look at it and not swim.  When we got there, the kids really wanted to swim in it so they went in their underwear.

It was raining today so here's a picture of all the kids in their  rain coats.

The other 2 waited to shed their clothes until after the picture.  Garret of course was so excited to get in that he couldn't wait.  Look at the ribs on that boy.
