A Delicious Local Treat

While we were in Puntarenas, we had to try Granizados dos Leches (translates as slushies two milks). It's shaved ice with flavoring, powdered milk, and condensed milk.

World Trip Revisit Day 333. We traveled from Montreal to Dallas to Palm Springs. Interesting tidbit: we cleared U.S. immigration while we were still on Canadian soil. Our luggage, after making it safely through 33 countries and TK flights, was destroyed by the ham-fisted baggage handlers at Palm Springs Airport. Welcome home! http://bit.ly/ttatw333 #USA #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit Day 332. Of course we had to visit to Montreal's famous @stviateurbagel to sample their much-loved #bagels. Some say these bagels are better than New York City bagels. http://bit.ly/ttatw331-332 #Canada #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit Day 331. Our triumphant — and a bit maudlin — return to North America. We were preoccupied with thinking about the end of our journey, so didn't really give Montreal the attention it deserved, but we did enjoy visiting the Place d'Armes and seeing the statue of Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve, the founder of the city (back in 1642 when the country was New France) hoisting a flag in front of the BMO Bank of Montreal. http://bit.ly/ttatw331-332 #Canada #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit Day 330. The streets of #Reykjavik are home to many pieces of public art. One of our favorites is the Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat, sculpted by Magnús Tómasson, outside Reykjavik City Hall. http://bit.ly/ttatw-329-330 #Iceland #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit Day 329. @bluelagoonis is one of those #Iceland experiences everyone talks about. So we paid too much money to go swimming in the wastewater of a geothermal energy plant. If hot springs are your thing, there are smaller, better, natural, and less expensive thermal pools to visit right in Reykjavik. http://bit.ly/ttatw-329-330 #Iceland #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit Day 328. We headed out to see sights along Iceland's "Golden Circle" with @yourdaytours. One of the stops was the awe-inspiring Gullfoss (Golden Falls), a 31-meter (100-foot) tall waterfall. http://bit.ly/ttatw-328 #Iceland #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit. Day 327. One of the first places we visited in #Reykjavik was the legendary @baejarinsbeztupylsur that serves its famous Icelandic #HotDogs served with fried onions and remoulade from a small shack. http://bit.ly/ttatw327 #Iceland #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit. Day 326 Our time in #England had come to and end. We drove our trusty companion, the Peugeot 308 SW named Persephone, to Heathrow (England wouldn't let us get away without a proper downpour) before we boarded our plane to Iceland. http://bit.ly/ttatw324-326 #England #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit. Day 325. Our last full day in #London. We wanted to relax and enjoy the company of friends, but we spent the afternoon in an NHS office to treat a broken wrist from a #skateboarding mishap. Yep, we made it 325 days before our first broken bone. But hey, as an American in London, I can say the NHS is pretty great. http://bit.ly/ttatw324-326 #England #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram

World Trip Revisit. Day 324. We stopped in #Newcastle to play video games at Game On 2.0, a special exhibit at Newcastle's Life Science Centre. http://bit.ly/ttatw324-326 #England #ttatw #takingontheworld #familytravel #travelgram
