			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, I finally had some time to sit down and put text next to each image from our recent trip to Costa Rica. <em>Click on the photo below to view the images and read more about our trip.</em></p>
<p>As a brief overview, we spent a week on the Pacific side of the country just north of a beautiful fishing village (Puerto San Juanillo). We were there for a wedding (Megan was the photographer) and spent most of our down-time relaxing (read: hammock time, pool time, beach time, etc.) and exploring a bit (a few hikes and two small outings (Tamarindo and a turtle boat tour). We had a wonderful time, and may possibly be in love with Costa Rica as a result of our time there. Now we just have to plan a trip so we can experience the rainy season&#8230;</p>

Basically the jack that came with the van couldn't get the vehicle high enough based on the terrain and position of the van. So Rodolfo came up with this awesome solution (a small peice of the nearby fence, a discarded board, and a big rock). We ended up having to lift the van onto the jack a few times (which was quite fun) but the system proved to be the only way to get the vechicle fixed.

It was quite sweet, but had a funky texture (Francisco scraped some of the meat into the milk for us to chug). I think it may take some getting used to."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_092.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Francisco took this family photo of us."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_093.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="One of the Howler Monkeys we saw on our hike. Francisco took us to a tree, after a small amount of bushwhacking, where a family of about 20 monkeys was resting. After a bit of back and forth communication, they decided to ask us to move on by presenting us with various installments of their excrement (...ummm, awesome?...). And after we turned our backs and started to walk away, one of the monkeys unleashed with this massive howl (hence their name) which sent chills up my spine and made Caleb jump."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_094.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="One of the bays in Puerto San Juanillo."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_095.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Caleb and I at the beginning of our turtle tour. Mike is standing behind us. We met he and his wife, Leah, rather by accident. They are both from Massachusetts and now run a dive shop in Costa Rica full-time. They were incredibly nice, and a pleasure to meet and hang out with. The couple on the right side of the image is from Canada."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_096.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Costa Rica, from the Pacific Ocean."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_097.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="The first of a handful of mating turtles we encountered.

The guy on the far left is one of the crew members, then I am next to Caleb and Megan. Caleb seemed somewhat apprehensive as Mike handed him down to me in the water, but he had a phenomenal time. Megan got in too when we noticed that Caleb was going to be fine floating in the Pacific with us, and we managed this rare family shot."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_101.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="A closeup of the three of us with the turtle and crew member."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_102.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Caleb, amped from his dip in the Pacific, spent the rest of the trip at the very front of the boat pretending to drive."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_103.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Mike, looking West across the Pacific."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_104.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Caleb, driving."></a><a href="http://calebandme.com/gallery/090218/090218_CR_105.jpg" rel="lightbox[090218_CR]" title="Still driving!
