Only in the rain forest…the pictures talk alone…

After six week of hard work, many meters of wood, many kilos of  nails, many gallon of painting, and many liters of sweat from our forehead…it’s ready!! the up house has been completed reformed, closing the terrace with wood, quality wood, teak wood. Down stairs now we have  a nice apartment with 5 beds ready to rent, fresh and clean! Marvin Ulate, the carpenter mede a exellent work…it’s amazing!!

We you get the Ferry to Paquera you probably get the attention at this big rock in the middle of the water, always full of many kind of bird…have something mystical…one day we have to go there…we don’t know how, but we will!

A quite big (but not huge)  south swell bombing our coast middle of april 2009, the beach was too heavy, so we decided to check some reef break close to us. With the legendary Feroza we left TP quickly  and we found the first break at 40 min driving…the tide was too low…we  decided to wait but on-shore F…king wind start blow all the coast…some nice set growing   but too choppy! this wind was looking like to f…k our session…but the Italian dude got a beautiful idea: If here is on-shore other side of the coast must be on shore….mhmmm…let’s try!  so… back to the car, 6 people, 6 boards…on the way we found all the village driving to the windy break, we did’t say anything about (hehheehhe) … finally we arrive to the reef break, from the road  we  saw a big left perfectly shaped by a strong Off shore wind…5 people in the water (everybody been on the other side!!!)…. have a look!

We definetly  realize the Machete is really useful…

In tropical and subtropical countries, the machete is frequently used to cut through rainforest undergrowth and for agricultural purposes (e.g. cutting sugarcane). Besides this, in Latin America it is not uncommon to see a machete being used for such household tasks as cutting large foodstuffs into pieces — much as a cleaver is used — or to perform crude cutting tasks such as making simple wooden handles for other tools. It is also common to see people using machetes for their odd jobs such as splitting open coconuts, working the lawns, or other related activities. Additionally, it is the most popular no-fire weapon used by bandits and outlaws.

 Well…who been in Costa Rica knows really well about this logo. Most famous “cerveza” in the country, high recomended to get it extra cold!

We also found a nice commercial video video, some beautiful  image  of the country…just have a look….

A hot afternoon we found under a Mamones Tree 2 reeealy small baby squirrels, still with close eyes. so we decide to take care, day after day, week after week, before feeding only with milk, after banana, mangos and more fruits…now we just leave the cage open and they go all around the garden till they come back to take food from ours hands…they are so cute and funny… we call them MACHO and PINA … best puppies ever !!!  give u  some pix…click to enlarge!!
