Adventuring: From the Mountains to the Beaches

Image
Friday I got up really early and took a bus downtown at 8:00 a.m. to meet my Tico friend Mariano at the edificio de correos so that we could catch a bus to one of his favorite mountains he wanted to show me.  I wandered around aimlessly for a while when I got there until I see him sprinting towards me in full-on tour-guide gear.  I'm talking cargo vest and cargo pants, sun hat, and backpack;- all khaki colored. I don't have time to laugh though because he grabs my arm and continues running to the next street, we are about to miss the last bus for a while and we really need to hurry if we want to enjoy the hike without a lot of heat; so here I am sprinting through the streets of San Jose until we hop on the bus for San Isidrio and fall into some seats, panting and laughing at what just happened.  Here we go again, I have hopped on a bus to God knows where and I'm about to embark on another adventure in Costa Rica ! San Josecito We get off the bus less than an hour lat
