As a change from all beach days, we decided to do a small jungle hike. Eco Venao Lodge has a short hike we have done a couple of times. Thankfully for the most part there are shade trees. Not long after crossing this stream we came across several howler monkeys. Pictures sure don’t do justice.Continue reading “Venao has both hiking and surfing”

Sand, Sun and Waves
Family visits are a great time to showcase local beaches. There are so many choices and each with different highlights. Cheryl, Adam, Hannah and Davis recently visited.

We also went to Punta Mala. Again, beautiful but oh so windy. The picture above and below are basically takenContinue reading “2020, Beaches and more, Pedasi”
2019 Playas….beaches…Pedasi
This time of the year makes me wonder if I am crazy for not being home for Christmas. Sure miss those grandkids. And then we go for a drive and as I look at the splendour all around I think maybe we are ok. This is just a random view from the car. We haveContinue reading “2019 Playas….beaches…Pedasi”
