When we arrived in Costa Rica 

We grabbed the surf boards and drove to the sea

All the locals said pura vida 

We paddled out and I felt free.
Long sandy beaches, mountains and trees

Was all I could see for miles and miles 

It was glorious sitting with the sea breeze 

The place was alive with laughter smiles.
After a while I caught my first wave

I rode it and rode it back to the beach

I fell off near a rock, it was a close shave 

I think my first barrel is amost in reach 
Suddenly I realised, 

“There is a shark!”

I turned round and paddled as fast as I could 

I didn’t stop running till I reached the car park

Two Fins in the water can never be good!
