The day was beautiful, hardly a cloud in the sky; and soon we were driving through the dense, lush foliage of the country side of Costa Rica. It was beautiful.
It didn’t matter which direction you looked, there was beauty to be seen. The road was narrow and gouged with pot holes, but there was very little traffic.
About an hour or so into the drive, we stopped at the top of the mountain, and found a local soda to have breakfast. A typical Tico breakfast is rice, beans and an egg mixed together.
We then continued on and eventually drove right across the ridge. Jaco was spread out below; and it was a great way to see the town that we’ve been living in. We could even see our condo; but not our balcony, cause there‘s so much foliage in front of it.
And it was pretty cool to see the Pacific from this great vantage point. Along with a lot of the many buildings and businesses that we’ve been too. All in all it was a great way to spend the morning; and we all enjoyed it.
We ended up having to go back downtown later that night; and thankfully the pills were in. We’re both starting to feel better; but it’s important that we get all of our meds in us. Also turns out that we both picked up a different kind of parasite. Both amoeba family, but different. Hopefully by the time we arrive home on Tuesday, we’ll both be rid of it; and feeling 100% again.
Including tonight; it’s 6 sleeps til home and 7 til our own bed. Looking forward to it.
