Costa Rica Honeymoon!

About a month after our wedding, Gil and I flew to Guanacaste, Costa Rica for our honeymoon. We stayed in a gorgeous condo on Flamingo Beach, which is on Costa Rica's Pacific side. It was so perfect and so relaxing. More vacation time please!
Our condo was only steps from the pool and the beach. And we were also one of the only couples there. Because the condos are newly renovated, most of them are for sale and are still vacant. We pretty much had the beach to ourselves.
The infinity pool was amazing, and it was just the right temperature. Gil and I got fried on our first day.
We ate at the cutest little restaurants. Our favorite was one called Maries, where we ate about five times. Luckily, the waiters at Maries are very honest. Me, being a ditz, left my purse there one night and didn't realize it until the next day. WOW, I know. Not one thing was missing from my purse. I was sooo grateful!
Playing on the beach.
This was the view from our downstairs patio.
We drove to Liberia one day to a hotel/resort called Hotel Guachepelin. There, you can do a ton of outdoor activities like volcano hiking, tubing, horseback riding, or the zip line. First, we hiked up a portion of the volcano Rincon de la Vieja. This is a small volcano that we saw.
Gil and I were so sad to leave. Six days just wasn't enough!

This was the sunset on our last night.
