Happy November in Sunny Rainy Blowy Southern Costa Rica

Welcome New Friends & Old ones too! So many wonderful people are finding our magical part of this world.

In the last week, 3 people I love have fallen & done substantial damage to themselves, broken ankle, broken hip & miscellaneous boo-boos. Please stay vertical and eternally vigilant.

I just had my driveway and entry Power Washed & what a difference it made! It was slippery scary before. I can recommend Geiner at 8632 5399 if you need to Power Wash / remove moss etc.

Want to congratulate our delightful chocolate makers from Sierpe for winning First Prize for their Milk Chocolate Bars at the Puerto Viejo Chocolate Festival this weekend. Normally not a milk chocolate lover ... I find this is really the most delicious. Come by for a taste. The Chili and the Coffee and the Sunflower are all delicious too... and all Dark Chocolate.

Translators available.
