Costa Rica Family Trip - Day 5 (Part 2 of 2)

 

After a fairly relaxing day around the beach and then back the Airbnb's pool, Tara and I cooked an early dinner for the guys, and we headed out for a date night on the town. As we were heading to our destination, we saw the monkey crew traversing the urban scene in downtown Tamarindo.  These guys apparently make a fairly standard trek from one end of town to the other at just before sunset most days.

Back to the date night, we made reservations at a place called the Dragonfly Bar and Grill which had a bunch of really good reviews.  We did some scouting earlier in the day to make sure the "vibe" looked good for what Tara was looking for and it passed!

The place was packed, and we had this great table in the center of the restaurant.  Once again it was mostly open air, and they had some music being played in the background by some live musicians.

I believe this is a picture of Tara's dish, but I can't remember what exactly she ordered.  It was pretty crazy good, though.

Here is the steak dish that I ordered above.  It had these potato string things on the bottom and an amazing sauce.

One last picture of Tara sending up a cheers for another great meal and night on the town together!  It is always good to get some time away while on vacation to just be with each other and not have to always be on parent duty.  At least by now the guys are getting old enough (and get along well enough) where we can leave them while we go out for a bit.
