Costa Rica was an interesting week. We spent half our time camping on Coco Beach. It was a beautiful but very touristy area. The beach was beautiful and free which was great, except that not being a campsite we had no ablution facilities. That wasn't as great. We were planning on being there just a night but that one night turned into 3. During this time we did different ministry, like some people went treasure hunting, ministered in close villages, etc. I went with Liz to a beach 2 hours away which is where one of our team members Diane's daughter-in-law Rhiannon tragically drowned a month ago. Liz went with Diane to Costa Rica to support her when the accident occurred, so we went there to pray for Diane, her family and LIz. It was amazing as we found the teenage boy who saved Rhiannon's 6 year old son and hear his testimony of what happened. He was such a hero in saving the boy, but unfortunately he wasn't able to save both of them.

It was a special day but unfortunately by this time I was supersonically sick with dehydration which I'd had for a few days. The rest of the day is a bit of a blur but it wasn't pretty, I hadn't been that sick in a really long time. It took me a few days to recover so Costa Rica is a bit of a blur as I really wasn't up for doing much. We stayed at a few more random RV parks on the way to the border before crossing into Panama.
