Samara Sunrise

Samara faces the Pacific so the sunrise may not be as dramatic as the carribean side, but still beautiful. Sunrise brings wonderment to Samara as nature abounds here.  Upon arising you discover that just as the sun rises and falls the ocean keeps rolling toward shore.

This morning nature abounds as Samara received some much needed rain last night. The Howler Monkeys must be happy as they have been very active this morning.

Even though this has been a dry year for Samara, because of its micro climate it is not as dry looking as the northern areas of Tamarindo closer to the airport. During the Summer months of CR January through May these areas up there are golden which is why it is called the gold coast.  Samara has some vegetation that is not so evergreen, but on the whole is extremely green compared to the gold coast.

Even when it rains in Samara it is usually late afternoon and evening. Yesterdays rain started about 4:30pm.  We were at Gustos and had just packed up to leave the beach for the afternoon. It was perfect timing for us.

On the way home we had time to stop by and see Dr. Freddy Soto. He is the doctor here in Samara. A wonderful doctor and takes alot of time with you. We had physicals last time we were here and all of our blood work. The lab results were back the next day and we stopped by to meet with him and got all the results, the next day!  This time I needed to meet with him about issues I have with pain in my hands. What could take weeks at home to get the appointment, xrays, etc was taken care of in about 30 minutes with a cortisone shot in each hand. Today they seem almost pain free;)

This morning we have some housekeeping chores with a trip tp ICE (eeecee) the power company, phone company etc. and to the Bank.  This afternoon a trip to Nicoya is planned as the woodworker will have my cabinet finished. We also have to pay the taxes. Never fun no matter what the country.

This weekend we are traveling to Ricon de Viejo.  I am excited. We have been to Tabacon which I love, but this area has blue water. Sounds beautiful. So for now...PURA VIDA!
