An Incomplete Record of an Incomplete Life….
We love to travel
Today was our last full day in the Quepos area so we decided to hit the beach. The beach we were going to is right near the entrance to Manuel Antonio Park so our host Paula gave us the rundown on what we were… Continue Reading “Mary, The Big Boy, and Burgers…”
This morning, Jordan and I were picked up at 8 am for our whitewater rafting tour. The owner of the company was Tim, as we found out, a great guy originally from North Carolina but now a Tico. With him were our 2 guides… Continue Reading “Whitewater, Sunshine, and Koky’s…”
We left Monteverde with a cool light rain falling and 3 hours later had the air conditioning blasting and couldn’t wait to jump in the pool at our new hotel – Jungle Creek Villas near Quepos, pretty much right on the ocean. These villas… Continue Reading “Finally, Hot and Wet”
I’m going to say something I would never say in front of Michele – and I know she doesn’t read any of my drivel, so I’m safe – but here it goes, my wife was right! Now before the internet explodes, she’s right about… Continue Reading “Cloud Forest…More Like Rain Forest”

I don’t drink beer but Cerveza in the title sounded more masculine than Pina Colada. We travelled to our last Resort – Rio Perdido – yesterday, which took us about 4 hours with a couple of stops in Liberia, one to pick up some… Continue Reading “Rio Perdido…Hot Springs, Cold Cerveza”
“Meet a man named Gredy in this secluded bar at midnight. Oh and where dark clothing!” Words that are either going to get us witnessing turtles coming ashore and laying their eggs, or, being the next set of tourists that have been murdered in… Continue Reading “Tonight’s the Night…”
I have been known to take certain liberties when I write my little blogs to spice them up a bit, but sometimes things happen that you really can’t make up. Take this morning… Ostional Beach is only a kilometer from the hotel but with… Continue Reading “A Walk on the Beach- Me, Michele, and a Herd of Cattle!”
