Leaving San Jose for Escazu




Bougainvillea everywhere

Beautiful angel trumpets


Some parting comments from San Jose areas before we leave for Escazu. 

Leaving downtown San Jose was tough...I mean the train going by our B&B every half an hour, the bars on either side open nightly till 2:00 am, the nine abandoned cats living on the roof tops, the tree that grew inside the courtyard producing millions of berries that would fall on the plexi rooftop, the downtown pollution, the taxis beeping non stop, the dogs barking at four am... 
Oh and during one of our last chats with Donna the owner of the B&B (who resides in Canada and we just happened to catch her on one of her spontaneous visits), informed us that when she bought the B&B it was a male brothel! She told us about all the changes she had to make to change it over to a B&B. Ron thanked her for taking all the nude male pictures off the walls. :-)

And so begrudgingly we left for a little cottage we rented for the next three weeks in the mountains of Escazu!

Nothing makes Ron's day like a Beer Factory sign!





Electrician's nightmare! 

Delicious ceviche

Driving in downtown San Jose

Vendors selling on the streets

Selling phone chargers to a taxi 

Motorcyclists in between lanes

Our morning greeter

Caught a cat and chicken during siesta

Residents on the rooftops





Can you find Waldo!

  1. Enjoy your time at the cottage in the mountains! I wonder what kind of wild visitors you will have there...
