Things to take on vacation in Costa Rica?

Question

My boyfriend and I are going to Costa Rica in August. We're in a long distance relationship right now and i'll see him once before we leave. I want to send him a package with some stuff to get him excited about the tip. What are things I could send him to make him think about vacation - or that he could use on vacation - that he might get some enjoyment out of now too? Thanks!

Answer 1

well u need some shorts if going to the beach...

Answer 2

I love this idea!  This would be something crazy I would do - and if I thought about it hard enough I can probably remember a time when I did!

1.  Send him something practical with a twist.  For instance, pick up one of those little first aid kits at the Dollar Store, then customize it.  It should come with alcohol swabs and bandaids, but you could add chapstick, individual packets of Tylanol and Benedral, and (wink) condoms :) (course he won't want to use this until he sees you!)

2.  Make him a small day pack and fill it with stuff he might need.  First aid kit, sunglasses, hat, etc

3.  Most people when going to CR are going to play in the water or play in the dirt.  If you are going to play in the water and he doesn't have an underwater camera - maybe pick up an inexpensive or disposible underwater camera that you guys can use on the trip.

4.  Email him CR pictures everyday before the trip or send him a digital frame with CR pictures and then he can replace the pictures with pictures of your trip when he gets back.  If you don't have any - let me know and I'll send you some - just got back on Saturday.

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head, but I hope this is helpful!
