Casa Jose and Penas Blancas



Trip to Casa Jose and Penas Blancas

On January 24, we rode with Ray down the mountain into the village of Penas Blancas.  He had a delivery of goat cheese to make to Casa Jose, an eco-friendly bed and breakfast.  Ray dropped us off to explore the grounds and promised to pick us up later in Penas Blancas.  They had a beautiful restaurant and grounds.  Hopefully we can go back for dinner some evening.  We took a path up from the restaurant to visit the waterfall.  We guessed it was probably about 85 feet tall. What a beautiful spot for a wedding.



We wandered around the grounds for a while and met Jose's family who were there visiting.  The grounds were beautiful and we found out that Jose had done all the work himself turning what was once swampy ground into a lovely manicured garden.



After leaving Casa Jose, we took off down the road and wandered through Penas Blancas.



We noticed that we had a different view of the doll house, that we photographed a few days earlier, when approached from a different angle.  We hadn't previously noticed the doll flagpole and pirate flag. 



When Ray picked us up, he had the key to the doll house (so that he could make a goat's milk delivery) on a key ring made from a doll's arm.  We decided that the guy definitely had a theme going.
