My Family Vacation to Costa Rica

Foreword:
Some of my friends have gone to Costa Rica. They say "Oh, it's really cool! I got to go to a fancy hotel and go on a zip-line and a guide took us to the rainforest!"

Papi (dad) is Costa Rican. We go to Costa Rica to see our family. This is my version of a vacation to Costa Rica.

My aunts, uncles and primos (cousins), even my abuelita (grandma) greeted us at the airport. They looked like a bunch of monkeys jumping around and waving and smiling on the other side of the glass wall when they saw us. We all hugged and kissed. We drove back to my Tias (aunt's) house. It is orange.
