3/28/18: Manuel Antonio National Park

This morning, Hek and I had breakfast at Selena.  There was a buffet-style breakfast where guests pay based on the weight of the food they choose.  After breakfast, we walked to Manuel Antonio National Park and slowly made our way around the park.  We slowly made our way around the park, visiting all three beaches and hiking all the trails inside the park.  The park was beautiful, and the highlights were definitely the paradise-like, clean, warm-water, tropical beaches that are commonly associated with paradise.

After visiting the second beach, Hek and I split off from Lina and Cindy, and went hiking for a couple hours.  As we were finishing our hike, it was 4PM and the park was closing down for the day.   We then went to dinner at El Avion with Cindy and Lina, followed by some drinking and deep conversation at Selena.  Each of us were vulnerable, honest, and it was a great night in its own way.  Among things we discussed were:

• Constructive criticism for each other
• Favorite books
• Happiest moment in each of our lives
• Living outside the box
