Our journey into Costa Rica on a "Medical Vacation" -- Two weeks of extensive dental work in a foreign country. We have very limited Spanish skills --- please join us as we navigate through language barriers, supermarkets, fast food joints, doctor's visits and who knows what else!

Coming Down from Acid Lake
Coming down a mountain sounds so much easier than going up one, doesn't it. I thought so too (so did everyone else, except our guide - HE knows better). While Doug shows us his Charlie Chaplin walk I discover a whole new set of muscles and tendons I had forgotten existed while living in flat Florida.
I was feeling old until a girl walking UP the mountain managed to wheeze out "can you believe I'm only 20?" Ah, yes -- it ain't just me!
People heading up kept asking -- how much farther and is it worth it. We based our answers on their general condition (I know, judgmental, but who wants someone to have a heart attack!)
