Hi Chris and Ralph - a great trip! Its all so languid - your pictures give us the picture - hot, slow, explore, snooze, explore, eat snooze. But the empty beachs, lizardy things, and those big Tiucans are so real - just says Costa Rica.

By comparison its been clear, sunny and about 26 in Vancouver., and rather than face a 1 1/2 hour delay at the border we decided to stay closer to home, had lunch up on the hill at Simon Fraser, and lazed around. Yoi could say our lives are comparable!

Keep up the dispatches! Love em. M & P
