Day 52 (March 3) – Journey to Jaco, Costa Rica
The day started with me saying how nice and cool it was in our camper. Then I looked at the thermometer – only 78 degrees!!! A quick travel meeting and we were off to Costa Rica. It sure would be nice if they installed fans at the border buildings but alas, they haven't so everyone glistened from the heat. I've been trying to figure out why my fingernails are always dirty here – today I decided it must be all the housework I'm doing! The road after we crossed the border was narrow, patched patches and no shoulder to speak of. The no shoulder part didn't really matter because if anyone is walking or waiting, they will be on the white line even if the shoulder is six feet wide. The ride to Uvita was pleasant and uneventful. After parking we headed for the beach and came home with swim suit and swim shoes full of sand. After getting everything washed off and clothes hung up on the line, we settled in with our books. We barely sat down when the heavens opened and we returned inside to what became, after having to shut most windows, our own personal sauna at 94 degrees. We survived and are now wondering how on earth we are going to sleep.
