Pit Stop in Costa Rica

We'd decided to finish our time in Latin America with a stop in Costa Rica as a bit of a “vacation” from our sometimes hectic and strenuous South America backpacking. On April 21st, almost six months after arriving in Santiago Chile, we hopped on a flight from Lima Peru to San Jose Costa Rica.


We had a rental car waiting for us at the airport, and quickly headed southwest to Dominical on the Pacific coast. About 18 months earlier we had visited Dominical and purchased a small piece of property. It was just an empty lot and would be for some time, but we were looking forward to getting back and visiting what would someday be our getaway from the long Yukon winters.
