Nicoya

While the title is Nicoya once again, I´m at a different internet cafe that is more air conditioned, and i haven´t actually been here for the week or whatever that has passed. Me and my traveling partner bodhi were on a hunt for her friend who has property in playa nosara. he inconveniently didn´t pick up his phone the entire day we were going there tho, so we had to spend a night in the town at a hotel that perfumed its rooms with urinal cakes. sweet. we got ahold of him the next day tho and what a place. hes owned the property for 20 years now but is just turning it into a bed a breakfast. he gave us a room and kitchen area for free, and we bought food to cook our meals with. i am now a master of tortillas and empanadas, a tico in the making! the best feature of the place, however, was the location, about a minute walk from a gorgeous stereotypically tropical white sand beach with rolling blue waves, palm trees, pelicans, and gulls. and sunsets, oh what sunsets. one of the best nights so far was watching the sunset on this gorgeous beach, groovin out to earth wind and fire, and drinking imperial beer. i honestly can´t think of anything that would have made it better. Playa Nosara actually consists of two beaches, and last time with the family, we stayed at the other one. so one of the days we walked to it to see what was there but also because i wanted to try to find the hotel and these super duper good sweet potato fries that i forget if i mentioned before or not. we batted .500, finding the hotel but not the fries. it was funny how much more i remembered about the place from before once i saw what the hotel was like again. I´d like to write more but we´re dying of hunger and have a bus to catch soon. im going to alajuela next though, so i should be back again soon. hope everyone is well!
