School’s BACK for the Summer

So I’m not sure why they call it Summer now, maybe because it’s hot. Costa Rica really just has wet and dry seasons. December and January was summer break for kids in school. The beaches were packed more than usual and children were everywhere!
Kids are back in school now and the beaches have fewer people. Strangely though this is the time when the trees bloom yellow, orange, poppy, and pink flowers. I find it strange because it’s so dry these days. So different than from October. On the walk down our dirt road to the beach these lovely flowers fall to the ground.
Interesting. They kind of look like bird heads throwing up. But they are still pretty.
Haha these flowers look like creatures! They look like funny birds with buck teeth or whiskers coming out of their beaks. Haha. Maybe I’ve been reading too much Dr. Seuss lately. I thought they were something the kids created, not Mother Nature. So cool!!
