FRIENDS

It was fun being on buses and boats and dining with the tour group.
Below are shots of happy traveling people with whom I enjoyed sharing the week.  - Joy

Tortuguero rustic cabin with walk in shower and a bedroom fan.

 No A/C, no phones, no radio, no alarm, and no glass windows.

Grateful to be traveling with them, 
I appointed myself their personal photographer.

Exotic fruits hang for sale in street shops.

I purchased the boiled fruits in a grocery.

Last night, in Costa Rica, in city of San Jose.

I bravely toured my new Canadian friends by foot with a map and a compass.

There are no addresses and NO mailboxes outside the city, in the countryside,

so seeing this very large, Correo, Post Office is ridiculous.

Golden Arch, McDonalds, serves gorgeous large chunks of carrot cake and had security guards.

We found our way back intact in the dark narrow alleyways of rush hour San Jose!
