For Amigocarlos the days always start early and this day was no different as he was out for his 100 minute run while others snoozed on, most option out of bird watching, 6.0 a.m. although Suntan and Jamz could be seen coming back from early morning yoga. The sessions offered yesterday were repeated most opting for the banana plantation or outside farm. This writer chose the banana plantation which was an excellent tour ending with a tour of the eco farm; cattle, pigs and all. Panama Don took a liking to the buffalo and Kitty could not even find anything nasty to say about the stinky pigs wallowing in their water holes. Sara took off to the airport and the main session saw a few doze off while others thought it informative while all agreed lunch was great. Shifty stole the show, (I think he thought it was his ANCHOR), when he offered the thank you from the AC group during our after lunch appreciation session. Loaded on to a luxury coach we headed for the mountains, San Jose on the other side and enjoyed some spectacular views despite the rain. B & B was somewhat cramped but it didn’t matter and we had a great meal, my naivety thinking we were going Chinese which was the restaurant next door to the very nice Costa Rica restaurant we dined.
And so the trip ends as Day 11 is a travelling day. Quick shopping trips are planned as we move to the airport and I doubt if any of us are excited about sitting in two airports, San Jose and Salvador. We leave at 8.20 a.m. and our expected arrival at Pearson is 9.50 p.m. Bummer! Nonetheless, a GREAT trip which was well worth time! This writer is so grateful to work and play with such a diverse, caring, fun, intelligent group. Pura Vida,Mae.
