Day Two in Costa Rica





Day two in Costa Rica  - December 13

After our leisurely breakfast, we packed up and moved across the compound (Henry and Ursela's house and Richard's apartments are all contained within a wall).  Our apartment was very nice and even bigger than it appeared from the photos.  We are very pleased.  We met our upstairs neighbors, Deb and Don from Salina, Kansas, who are also considering moving here when they retire.

We are in the bottom apartment.  The garden around the apartment is gorgeous.  We have several fruit trees with lemons, limes, oranges and tangerines.  I had spied a ripe lemon in one tree and was going to pick it for my water, but I guess one of the neighbors or a bird beat me to it while I was napping.  We also have coffee plants full of beans in the field right next to us.

There are beautiful poinsettias and flowers in abundance.  This poinsettia is probably 12 feet tall.
