Costa Rica day 31 Feb. 8


We headed of this morning to Manazanilla on a chicken bus it was a pretty bumpy dusty drive for the most part. Manzanilla is a small fishing village and near the end of the road as far as Costa Rica goes. The only stop remaining is Sixaola at the Panamanian border. The village itself is comprised mainly of a town square with a park, beach, Maxi's restaurant and another smaller restaurant. We had a good lunch when we arrived around noon upstairs at Maxi's overlooking the ocean. Our friends who accompanied us headed straight to the beach. Lisa from Holland, a couple of German girls and another fellow from Holland. Lisa was dying to get snorkelling but the weather/water still wasn't condusive. We joined them after lunch and had a layed back beach day until it became time to leave at 5:15. The bus ride here stopped at every little bush to pick up and drop off and it was standing room only for the most part. Coming back it was faster and we made it in an hour but it was still dark when we got here. Hopefully tomorrow will be a snorkelling day.
