Be like the Sunflower ... always seek the light.
Welcome to over a dozen new subscribers this week ... and Pura Vida Blessings to All!
So happy to see so many new faces ... and many of our friends returning here, happy to escape the cold in much of North America right now. As we head into our Summer ... record cold temperatures are being reported in many parts of the world. I know many join us in feeling the many benefits of life here in the Southern Zone.
It is not without challenges for sure. As just about everywhere in the world ... robberies increase this time of year ... here included. So be extra vigilant, and we recommend to all that you "Trust in God and tie your camels."
Thanks to many of you who sent in updates for our website since last week .. .and again encourage any and all who have announcements and ads that are outdated, to please send us current information! If you would be so kind, if you encounter something that is already sold, forward that info to us, as these matters often go unreported and we want the best, most accurate information possible of course.
This year with Christmas and New Years landing Tuesdays, both of these weeks will be "normal" at the San Isidro / Perez Zeledon Feria, Thursdays and Fridays. We at Colibri's Corner encourage pre-orders, which helps the flow at our booth substantially. We also offer delivery service to just about everywhere in Costa Rica ... and here in the Southern Zone, 6 days a week. Just write delivery@puravidaconnections.com.
