I am 17 weeks pregnant (today!) and we want one last holiday before the baby comes (due 7 July). We have always wanted to go to Costa Rica and the best time to go is April, and this is also when my 2009 holiday allowance starts with work. However, everything shuts on Holy Week (5-12 April) so we need to either go before then (assuming my manager will let me bring some holiday forward) or after. Will I be too big to go away for 2 weeks during either time? Costa Rica will be fairly active, there is a loop you are meant to travel to see 3 different attractions (not including San Jose where we would start/finish). I don't know if anyone has ever been how active I would have to be, the things you are meant to do are basically a volcano, a cloud forest and a rain forest. I don't necessarily mind not seeing every single thing but I don't want to miss out on good experiences either. If Costa Rica is a no-go, does anyone have any other suggestions for April? Our perfect holiday was Bahia Principe in Mexico, the resort was HUGE with so much to do but also quite a few interesting days out to be had outside of the hotel complex.
