Theives

Sometimes, when you take your family to enjoy beaches like this:

Your car gets broken into and you get robbed!

Sure, being robbed is no fun. But.....

I've got nothing.

It's just not fun. 

Oh! Ok! Here it is.  But..... at least the theives didn't take MORE of our stuff!  Yes, because we aren't complete morons. We did know the risk. Mentally I was prepared to get stuff stolen in Costa Rica, we've heard so many stories.  So we never took our camera gear off of our bodies while out and about.  

Things stolen:  The Blue Lily Tent. ouch. (We didn't know it was in the car at all. It was supposed to be in the camping suitcase at the Ghosty Hotel,but strangely, wasn't.)

Rental Car Stereo. (when we noticed this we were like, what? This piece of crap car had a stereo?)

Rain gear.  (whoops, my bad for shoving it under the seat to save space.)

And that's it!  We considered ourselves victors, in the end. That is, until we backed the car out of the beach parking lot and hit a tree.

Whoopsie!

I'm so sorry! This post brought it down to earth though. I think I have romanticized your traveling life, but this reminded me about the parts of traveling that suck. You've got a great attitude though, carry on victor!

Being robbed just sucks no matter which way you slice it especially on vacation. So happy that you guys planned for it and are having a fun adventure despite the challenge. Thanks for sharing such an amazing picture. It has a slight resemblance of Haystack Rock on the Oregon coast.

When you backed into the tree, did you notice they also stole your rear view mirror? Beautiful picture and stay safe.
