Go to Costa Rica, Speak French And Enjoy Life

No surprise, but we arrived back in Costa Rica yesterday afternoon. Since the  condo in Tamarindo isn't available until later today, we spent the night in Liberia, where there is an international airport serving the many tourist areas in the northwest. 

We had dinner at Cafe Liberia, the number one rated restaurant on Trip Advisor. Chef-owner Sebastien Devenelle presides. He is from Reims, France. It was too difficult to start a business in France so he came to Costa Rica and fell in love (as all visitors do). Devenelle opened a restaurant in the oldest building in town, where he serves simple and simply perfect food. When my review on Trip advisor is approved I'll come back and add a link with a description of our meal.

Highly recommended if you find yourself in this part of the world.

After Hours

The market late at night is busy with produce arriving to stock the stalls. These are the guys who enable the market to show produce straight from the farm.  Many of the farms are in Europe.  For those who want us to step back in time I will keep an eye out for the horse and cart from across the river. Problem is that land is all concrete now.  But Brits don't let a few problems get in the way.  They'll sort something out....... won't they?
