What is a vacation? Can you have a true vacation while still at home? I think not. I think vacations are getting away from all the daily things in your life; work , meetings, appointments, clubs, practices, and work. The problem with vacations is that they end. It is impossible to have a never ending [...]

Like a troubled bridge over waters

We had planned well, up early, sit by the pool for an hour or two, eat a little breakfast, say our goodbyes, then on the road to San Jose no later than 11 am. Plans are made to be altered.
Everything was on schedule, and as we were on phase three, heading out to breakfast, we [...]
Where the heck is Junquillal ( hoonk-a-lawl)?
Posted in Vacation, costa rica on February 1, 2010 | 1 Comment »
As much as I love having the GPS, it is definitely not infallible. For instance, last week we wanted to check out a place called Junquillal. Junquillal is a nice little beach town south of Playa Flamingo. So we punch it in the GPS and off we go on another adventure. Little did we know [...]

Well apparently some things are not so much different here in Costa Rica than back home. Say for instance the fishing. We took a small charter out this morning to do a little fishing for, well for pretty much anything. Although the methods were slightly different, the weather was way different, the results were vaguely [...]

Socializing together is very important for ex-pats in Costa Rica, as has become apparent to us this trip. In one week we have gone to two well attended fund-raisers. The first was here in Flamingo for a local private school. There we met many people from the community, people from the church, from the school, [...]
Merry surfing to me

I am a legendary body surfer and well known boogie boarder, at least in my family. However, I cannot say that it has always been my dream to be a surfer. This past Christmas, knowing we would be in Costa Rica together, Jason bought me surf lessons. In his words, so he would not look [...]

Being on the beach has brought a lot more activity into our lives. We have met up with Jason and Angie and their kids, met up with our friend from last year, Jane; met a whole bunch of new people out outings ranging from a beach party at a nice condo resort, to a fund [...]

Having been home for four days now, you would think we would have readjusted back into the real world; got into our groove, our schedule, enjoyed the ever warming weather. If only it was true. We still cannot get our minds off of Costa Rica. Maybe it was the adventure, going to a new country, [...]
Costa Rica Last Full Day Sailing take me away…… Christopher Cross
Posted in Vacation, costa rica, tagged catamaran, costa rica, lazy lizard, playa flamingo, sailing on March 6, 2009 | 1 Comment »
For those of you that know me very well, you would know that the above is my all time favorite song. Funny thing, I have never sailed in my life. Much like the horses, if it doesn’t require a key, I don’t usually drive / ride it. So today’s experience was a new one for [...]
Costa Rica Day 14 Blown Away
Posted in costa rica on March 6, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Today was Tra’s birthday, and we had big plans, snorkeling, secluded beach, lunch, sunset on the water and dinner at her favorite restaraunt. Unfortunately, the Papagayo winds had something else to see about our plan. Due to the winds, our catamaran had to cancel its trip so we had to quickly re-organize our day.
Instead we [...]
