La Paz Waterfall Gardens

Last weekend I had the privilege to go to La Paz Waterfall Gardens here in Costa Rica. It truly was beautiful and refreshing after spending a couple weeks couped up in the city. What a wonder to enjoy Gods creation with a new appreciation.

After growing up in the country I never realized truly how blessed I was to see all the the green fields the hills the open space and the opportunity to breath clean untouched air. 

Since being here in Costa Rica I have really had a problem with feeling caged up like an animal. I live in a pretty house with a nice family but we only have a 6x12 ft yard with grass and everything has to be locked at all times.

Defiantly not what I would prefer to have my child grow up in :) I keep thinking "Oh these poor kids, they have no idea what they are missing, what a boring childhood".

 

Anyway all that being said, I'll let you see for yourselves the pictures of a beautiful day in a gorgeous place :) It was a blessing from God in every aspect and very refreshing, Enjoy!!!!

All along the mountains they grow coffee and 80% of it goes to Starbucks.

Lots of beautiful flowers. And for those who know me know I love flowers :)

And best of all lots of waterfalls.
