The 1990s when my dad was still mobile enough. He was in his early 70s and we had gone mushroom picking in the mountains near Wilkes-Barre, PA. Both of my parents died in 2013.
Last summer in upstate NY I went hiking with my Mom on a trail near Indian lake. It was very magical! And my Dad and I watched a fox trot by in front of us a we relaxed in Adirondack chairs on the edge of the lake. It was the first time we had been back there in 25 years. Epic trip!
My last adventure with my Dad was in Florida..He passed away when he was 36 from SLE Lupus Renal Failure. Our last trip was very memorable..He took me snorkeling and a mamma and baby dolphin swam under us..He also picked up a pink seahorse and handed it to me. I will never forget that day. He grew up in Fort Lauderdale Florida, so he loved to go deep sea fishing. My Mom isn't as adventurous lol but she visited me recently in Montana and I made her go to Glacier National Park. I love to hike and she thinks I need to make hiking t-shirts that say "it's not that far" since that's my favorite thing to say when hiking with her, my husband and kids lol.
It’s great that you both enjoyed our country. Thanks for sharing our county’s beauties. You will always be welcome to come again. There are a lot more of places to visit as Nauyaka Waterwalls, Rio Celeste, Tortuguero National Park that is our version of the Amazon River but with much more biodiversity, Corcovado National Park that is called by National Geographic as the world’s most biodiverse place in the entire world, and many more places. Pura vida!
This was an once in a life time kind of trip you did with your Mom. You are both blessed with these memories forever that many of us don't press pause on life to take to do. I'll guess you're a pretty incredible woman. Congrats to you and Mom.
Wow ! Definitely a Jurassic Park feel. Favourite colour GREEN. Lol. Wildlife a plenty. Wonderful to see you spending special time with your mum. Keep smiling lovely lady keep sharing your magic. Bringing good vibes to all around the globe. Xx
Costa Rica is an ecologically sensitive country compared to others in Central America. Nice views, especially the volcano. Time spent in good company is never wasted, and time that goes by never comes back. Make the best out of it and Costa Rice is sure a good destination. Thanks for sharing. 🇨🇷💦🌋🌅
My husband's friend moved from Texas to Costa Rica and never came back..He used to do fishing tours..Now he owns a hotel there..I would love to go there and see the ocean and wildlife..Oh and try the coffee and chocolate! :) Glad you were able to take a fun trip with your Mom!
Great trip with your Mom. Showing and giving appreciation and love for Mom. I wouldn't mind at all living there in Costa Rica with all of the nature that it has...nice legs.
The volcano was incredibly vast and that hot water river looked like possibly THE highlight!! This was a very sweet episode! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That hot river was definitely one of our favorite parts. Luckily the trail to get to it was quite short so my mom was bike to scramble down with her canes
@@AliceFordAdventures she’ll definitely never forget this gift of time and luxurious earth you gave to her! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I did a week-long mother-son trip with my mom when she was in her 80's and I can guarantee you that this trip with your mom will be one of the best memories in your life! And thanks for your superb cinematography and commentary!
Lovely video of my country, you really describe it as it is, your mom looks adorable. I love Amor Arenal, best place to stay in the entire area. I live in the south west pacific, you should check this out, very beautiful places to visit, you are such a beautiful woman, hugs from the jungle!
I'm going to save this one for planning a Costa Rica trip. Maybe this year.....definitely next year. Your video and editing and music are well done (as usual).
Alice, Great seeing your Mom on an Adventure with you. I am sure you're both very special people. Loved the Waterfalls. 9 Lives 🐾 Appalachian Adventure Guides & Appalachian Outward Bound For At Risk Youth.
Just for you to know the name of the volcano that you visit first is Poás (so sorry but the way you pronounce it is totally wrong 😂 no offense), it is located in the Alajuela province (the one where is located the main airport of the country the Juan Santamaria Airport), the trip to get there by car takes around 1 hour, and the entrance price is $16.95 for people over 13 years old but it is definitely an amazing experience you will never forget. Greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷 PURA VIDA 🤙
That would be a fun vacation. Like going to the zoo. On my hike yesterday all I saw was two snakes. Enjoy the Kentucky Derby today Alice.I bet twenty bucks each year on the race. I never have won a thing. Maybe this year.

Fascinating place. Similar to Guatemala, where I was a couple of weeks ago. I hiked Acatenango y Fuego volcanoes. Have you been there?
Thats awesome. I have not hiked that volcano yet, but it looks awesome.
❤
Location at 7:10 min? Pura vida 😊
👍💗💗💗
It's not easy to get close enough to photograph a green heron.
That boat ride certainly got us close to so much wildlife a highlight of the trip
Hi Alice what month was this?
@@monicalevesque5048 This was in May
Yes we don’t have monkeys on the azores lol
