Sunny day at the beach at last.


After our monteverde stop, we once again have difficulties getting up and making our 6 am bus to puntarenas. There we hopped on a ferry, then onto another bus. We then arrive at a town and decide to finally splurge and take a taxi down the dirt road to mal pais and santa teresa. Here we go to a recommended place Casa Del Mar owned by a Spaniard and his wife. Most of the people here are primarily spanish speaking but nonetheless the place was relaxing. We finally found a sunny day to go down to the beach. After a quick swim we became fascinated with the literally thousands of hermitcrabs wandering around the beach. The next day we did a little tanning and sunset viewing(eventhough it was cloudy) We were excited to get in a little sun since it is the rainy season and rains quite often. When it rains we can hang out on the patio in hammocks which is quite relaxing. Today looks like a day of watching world cup qualifying although I doubt anyone will be watching the US game, rooting for costa rica to beat mexico would have a similar effect. Tomorrow we head back to San Jose to catch our flight to Peru. 12 days in costa rica just isn´t enough!
