Justin and I wanted to take our first adventure together out of the country, after much debate we decided upon Costa Rica. We drove 8 hours to the southeast corner of the country ending up in Puerto Viejo. This laidback, rasta town sat right up against the Caribbean Sea. For the first couple days Justin and I stayed in a tree house in the middle of the jungle. On September 23, I woke up to breakfast in bed prepared by Justin, we drank coffee and listened to the howler monkeys scream from the views of our bed. After breakfast I found some rundown bicycles and suggested to Justin we ride them down to the beach where we hung out for most of the morning. Once back at the treehouse, Justin told me to change into hiking clothes and to pack a pair of nice dinner clothes. We like to plan surprise days for each other so I figured this was just something small he had planned. The first stop was a beachside bar where we sat a table right on the water and were served an Imperial. The second stop was at a hiking trailhead, I was so excited because this was our first hike of our trip! Justin had me lead the way I assumed so I could run into all the spider webs. The hike lead to a cliff that overlooked the Caribbean Sea. It was stunning. I turned to look at Justin when I saw my sweet love of many years down on his knee, promising to love, care, honor, provide, and protect me for the rest of my life. Letting me know that he knew I would be his wife since I first met him. I said yes with tears streaming down my face. Out of the jungle came two photographers that Justin had hired to capture the entire moment! The photographers then took us down to Punta Uva beach and captured a photoshoot of the two of us. As if that wasn't enough, Justin had reservations for us at a beautiful restaurant called Noa's. There we had a 6 course meal with a private waiter sitting under a fully candlelit cabana. We celebrated and called our loved ones and told the story over and over without tiring.
