Costa Rica day 9


We left Villa del Sol at 7:30 by cab and went to the bus stop where we caught a chickenbus to Filadefia (that's the correct spelling down here). From therre we went to Huacas where we caught a cab to Playa Grande. This beach is unbelievable and I would guess probably 10 miles long and 300' wide. We found an assortment of shells (one of which there's a picture of on facebook & is currently in the sink waiting to meet his maker). This certainly isn't a swimming beach but the place is full of hippy surfer types from all over. Gotta run as we've got a long walk from here to our place
This is our beach at Playa Grande about 500' from where we're staying. A famous beach for the nesting Loggerhead turtles which we viewed last night. Time right now doesn't permit to make this lengthy so stay tuned.
The two chicken bus trip yesterday was great and we were here by noon for under $4 for the two of us.
