mucho tiempo, no escribo



You can just see the volcano in this photo,
to the right of the center!







Well,
We're back home in Monteverde after a very long and enjoyable time
traveling. First, around Costa Rica including meeting my family
at the beach in Samara. Second, our needed Visa vacation to
Panama.
I'll try to update the blog and keep it simple. I've got a lot of miles
to cover!
Starting with our departure on December 15, we headed to Arenal.
As the crow (or quetzal) flies, it's only a few miles. As luck has it,
it's a challenging and beautiful drive around Lake Arenal. The road
is paved a little bit more each year and now it's actually black
hardtop from Arenal all the way to Tilaran. That still leaves a nice
1 1/2 to 2 hour trip on the beloved dirt road. We had a beautiful day
and killer views of the landscape, lake and volcano.
