There are not very many pictures of the San Jose apartment. There just wasn't much to see. No, really. There wasn't. But Ellie learned to play Go Fish (Pesca!), so there was a lot of card playing...
But there were excursions.
Who knew San Jose has a fabulous velodrome?
And there was a trip to the Biological Station for the Organization for Tropical Studies at La Selva, for an exclusive guided tour (Thanks, Silvia!). It was just so green...
Colleen, the girls the los abuelos spent a weekend at Manuel Antonio National Park (see the separate link). Then Daddy arrived and it was off for the vacation proper.
Driving the mighty Nissan Tourrano in the streets of San Jose on our trip to Laguna Arenal...

On the way to Arenal we took a side trip to view local furniture shops, and lunch, in Sarchi...
Lots of Cokes were drunk on this trip, which made some people very happy.
