Uvita, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica pamericasSmall village on the main road but Tucan Hotel set back. Not cheap and only 2 showers/toilets shared between up to 4 people in treehouse, 4 in hammocks, multiple others camping plus 12 people in dorms when fully occupied. Female shower/toilet always full of men as bigger - thankfully came when quiet.
Cocked up the directions to the falls, Cascadas Verde & didn't turn left before hardware store. Ended up crossing the river ...
... figured it was a fuel issue. Now, a few days later, we relize the problem was not Wesley but bad fuel. White smoke, which we were blowing, is a sign of too much water in the fuel. Of course we had to get the bad Diesel right before going over the Moutain of Death! Luckily Wesley is running fine now.
That night we parked in the middle of a pineapple field own buy yours truly, Del Monte. I never thought we would be enjoying Del Monte for it's beautiful sunset's!
... way traffic.
We arrived when it was dark and after a little searching found a hotel where they offered us a pretty good rate because it was late. We examined the room and it was a good one right by the beach.
Manuel Antonio is known for its national park that is right on the beach and it has a really cool feel on the beaches when you see the jungle come all thew way up to the water. One the first ...
Just a quick blog to keep you up to date
Had to change plans as there was no space at Sirena Ranger Station. Margarita was able to organise alternative route into Corcovado
Got Marvi bus to Sierpe. Stayed in good cabinas and had excellent meal in their restaurant
... helped us with our bags. Grandma and grandpa’s room was one of the small bungalows. The room had a queen size bed and a nice sofa in the room. Our room, the monkey room, had a queen, a double and a twin (just perfect for our family). There wasn’t a lot of extra room, but we were fine. Both rooms had a microwave and a refrigerator. Shaeleigh and I walked to a small grocery store and got some snacks while Necia, Parker, & Malesa ...
Manuel Antonio National Park, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica mnasf... as we needed to resolve the situation. Within seconds, the new bill was prepared, apologies were laid out thick and fast and we retreated into the night with the remains of our bottle of wine. It was a shame really as the previous night we'd eaten there everything had been top notch (apart from a few dodgy items added to our bill which was well spotted by Mip!), but we both saw the funny side of it and didn't let it spoil the day. Next day we skipped breakfast and made ...
Manuel Antonio National Park, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica sonandjim... stricken over my good fortune, and therefore obligated to bring the fruits of my luck--my education, my physical abilities, my time and money--to the world's karmic potluck. I'm beginning to feel frustrated at how little I seem to have accomplished here. There's so much more I could be doing, if only things were better organized, if only I'd been better prepared, if only I could stay longer, if only I'd thought of that sooner. Maybe I need to stop thinking in terms of ...
Manuel Antonio National Park, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica espriseme... peninsula so there are magnificent beaches on both sides. It was really nice and we saw some monkeys and lots of lizards and these crazy fluorescent orange and purple crabs which dart about on the path. Itīs hot and tropical and as itīs coming in to rainy season the clouds come over and it starts to pour at about 5, 6 pm which is quite nice as itīs a bit of relief from the heat. Wednesday we went white water wafting in the morning and then spent the rest of the day on the beach.
Manuel Antonio National Park, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica myates... out the water from the car. Thank goodness for full coverage insurance!!!!! We're grateful it turned out okay in the end and have pictures for memories, but Shane said he'll never drive again! We did surf again in the late afternoon, a little smaller, but still beautiful conditions! The next morning, we covered more of Manuel Antonio park, saw more sloths (very cute)- did you know they have their own ...
