Day 23 -24 Last weekend in Costa Rica

We left early Saturday morning for the 4 hour ride from Monte Verde to San Jose. What a culture shock! I think we were all overcome by the noise and busy lifestyles of the city! We vistied the National Theatre and the National Museum. Both places were very interesting.

We had dinner at a favorite place....we had been to before! The food was wonderful and we sat around sharing some of our stories of the 3 week adventure. I think Costa Rica has a special place in all of our hearts.....

The country is so beautiful! The people live simple lifestyles; where the phrase of the day is "Pura Vida"....pure life!

Our plane departed at 12:30 Costa Rica time for Fort Lauderdale and our connecting flight landed safely in Myrtle Beach around 9:40. It made for a very long day of traveling. Walking out of the airport was like walking into a sauna...the heat and humidity was oppressive! Yep....we were home! I'm already longing for the cooler temperatures of the cloud forest, the quiet nights, and the fruit drinks!
