Okay tried that and you will have to copy and paste. I don't know why but it is a cool virtual tour so give it a try.

No plans for the day. I was thrilled yesterday that John gave me a haircut. For some reason hair grows faster here. Must be all that natural food or something. At any rate my hair cut turned out wonderful. I don't think the hair dresser will have to fine tune it at all.
Have a great day and I will update a little later.

Motmot bird







This morning has been a bird watchers dream. I didn't get the camera out in time to get them all but these pictures of the Motmot bird are wonderful and the pictures don't do it justice. Just beautiful!

What a ship







We had this beautiful ship in our bay for just a day on Wednesday 2/16/11. It was beautiful before they put the sails up but when it left it was quite impressive under full sail. I just had to share it with all of you.

Fires







2/11/11 we had some fires burning south of town in the hills. I wanted to share the pictures so you could see how dry it is here in Playas Del Coco.

January Vacation in Costa Rica

Well this trip has been relatively problem free. We had some issues with the phone and Internet upon arrival but all those have been resolved and we have moved on to terraceing the front yard and adding a sprinkler system. Andreas has been a Godsend, he knows how to do everything we ask him and he does a fine job. I am including some pictures of the progess so far. Since this is the dry season here we will return in June or July to add plants.
