Life at the beach



Timing and coincidence has brought us to the beach for 2 months. We’re watching the house (and puppy) of a good friend of ours who lives one block from Cocles beach in Puerto Viejo. Instead of waking to the sounds of howler monkeys we hear the waves from the nearby beach. We’re also an easy walk to any number of restaurants, bars, and shops. We’ve been taking full advantage of the calm Caribbean waters that occur each September and October in this area and have been able to snorkel several times each week. We still make the trip back to the jungle a couple of times a week to visit but for the rest of this trip in Costa Rica it looks like we will be “beach bums.”
