 I've only seen a small portion of Costa Rica so far, but already I know that it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. I've stood on the side of a mountain at 4,000 feet and looked out at the Nicoya Peninsula and the Pacific Ocean beyond. I've sat on the porch of a bed and breakfast in Puriscal and gazed at a blue lake, and the verdant green hillside on the other side.

 It's July 12th and we're back in Baltimore from our trip to Costa Rica-- it was even harder to leave this time than it was when we visited in January. If you remember, Paul and I took a "retirement tour" with George Lundquist (a GREAT investment of time and money, and a very good value; you can visit George's website for more info). This trip, we decided that we would visit a few of the towns George took us to, in order to try to pin down where we would like to live. We spent four days/three nights in beautiful Puriscal at Las Alturas de Puriscal Bed & Breakfast which is run by Bob & Patsy from Canada.. (In case you would like more information, you can reach them by email at

.) It is a peaceful and tranquil spot ("muy tranquilo" as the locals say) on a 350 acre working farm. The back porch looks out on a pond and rolling green hills. Here are a few photos, though they don't do it justice.
This is the view from the back porch...
