La Paz briefly

  • January 28, 2022June 7, 2022

Beyond Bebedero

  • December 15, 2021June 7, 2022

Our planned beach trip was ruined by Google Maps and Waze, both screeching horrible warnings of snarlups to the coast. Nearly 2 hours to Punta Leona, can you believe that?…

The hill….

Coffee fields Rodeo

The Hill & the Haas

Before breakfast we walk up the hill, checking picnic and sundown spots (sadly our main tree was ruined by progress), flowering trees, and the grazing herd. An attempt to film…

First sundowner

  • November 7, 2021June 7, 2022

Our attempt to drive to the Central vivero was thwarted by excessive crowds thronging around the poor plants. At least we had first driven to Restaurant Monteverde at Siquiares, and…
