That about sums up Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. It´s all about relaxing on the beach, drinking $1.80 beers and surfing (if you are into that sort of thing. . .) Since we got to CR 3 days earlier, we decided to head to the east coast and check out this town. It took us about 3.5 hours to get there, including about an hour on a super bumpy road into town, but it was well worth it. it´s the most relaxed beach town we´ve ever seen. it felt like jamaica (although neither of us have been to jamaica, but who cares!) we were sad to leave it today, even if we did get nice sunburns as souvenirs.
today, we are in san jose, waiting to pick up olivia and eithne who arrive at 9 pm. kieran is getting a hair cut now (will he look like ricky martin?!) and i am online for just 500 soles an hour! sounds expensive, right? not! the exchange rate is like 500 to $1. I took out 10,000 colones bills. it´s only a $20, but boy does that make you feel rich!
cheers, monica + kieran
