Boys a little under the weather, but still had fun

Monday, March 16, 2015
Corcovado National Park, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica
Mon Mar 16
-both boys had upset stomachs during the night n the morning forcing us to cancel our big hike
-since the crew was sleeping after a fitful night including the generator when we lost power, I headed out for an early morning SUP. paddled about 40 mims to the river mouth n then another pleasant 30 mins up the river where temps were cooler due to shade n the river water. 
-saw many electric blue butterflies but no cayman, iguana or monkeys
-as I exited the river on my way home, I saw a little knee high wave that deserved investigation. Caught about 10 fun little waves on my junky 11' foam top, laughing all the way. So now I am a certified Costa Rica surfer. Too funny. 
-paddled home n caught up w L for my second bfast of the day.
- Eventually got the boys to the pool as there energy was winding up. Played there for almost 2 hours n saw monkeys eating fruit in the trees. 
-cleaners were working on room so we decided to have lunch. Boys didn't have much of an appetite n wanted to go relax after eating light portions. 
-played cards n Finn spotted a Toucan. Got an unusual downpour in the late aft. 
-boys got energetic so we played four square in patio below the cabana. Seemed to upset the boys' stomachs cuz neither really wanted any dinner. 
-had early dinner, at least L n I. Back to room for early bed n hopefully healthy boys for big hike tomorrow. 
-sort of a get through it day n we bummed boys don't feel well. Hopefully tomorrow goes well otherwise we scramble again. Would b a bummer to miss Corcovado wildlife n hikes. Fingers crossed.
