Ho Chunk Wisconsin Dells Valet Parking

Day 10: Playa Coco

To finish the trip (we only had four days), we decided to choose a beach resort on the Nicoya Peninsula. This area is a bit more tourists than the rest, but is supposed to ditch the best white sand beaches.
ls Among many options, we chose Playa Coco, for the first two days, and Tamarindo, for the last two. As our destination was far away, about 150 kilometers ticos, early morning breakfast and we start running quickly.
The journey by road takes pretty good, but heavy traffic of trucks. I am starting to get tired of driving almost every day from one place to another. If we were to make the trip, perhaps otherwise arise with more pauses.
Surprisingly it took just over two hours and not twelve when we enter the hotel. The room okay, but not nearly reach the level of the past. However, the hotel has a small pool that I do is look, fill in the forms mietras reception because the heat is infernal.
Leaving things in the room h we take a bath. Then, as we, in swimsuit and cholas, we went to the beach. The disappointment is tremendous. It is ugly, and actually has white sand, but is very dirty. There are piles of trash accumulated along the sand. Also in the middle of the beach is a mouth of a small river and drag so much land, which, along with water, but sand, which is mud treads. We give a approximately an hour ride, if at either end the best thing, but it is not. Turn to the people and handle food in a bar overlooking the beach.
The imeriales with ice and a shrimp ceviche us to recover the spirit. We decided to spend the afternoon at the pool (do not feel like driving to another beach) and tomorrow we'll go to Tamarindo. In the account will note that this area is tourism. The prices almost double those of the sites that have been in recent days, and at least triple those of Puerto Jimenez.
The evening was spent bathing and reading. My two guides (the Lonely Planet and Audi) are so paws and reread it seem much older than they really are. The hotel has a small casino that makes him look a bit decadent. There are some older tourists who travel alone and life is stuck sitting in front of a roulette or any other game. The waitresses / croupiers endure with his leering smile.
Thinking a bit about it, we realize that we have met very few Ticos. The conclusion we draw is that, traveling with my car, there are few opportunities, and decided that next year there where we go, we will in Trasnporte public.
In the evening we dined at the restaurant. We do not want to play at all clear, but decided to have a drink on the other hand are extremely cheap. probably a estartegia so that once animated by the spirit, let yourself go in the game. With us it does not work. We ask for a drink after another and we ended up pretty drunk, but instead of the game, gives us other things. We left tambalenates. He barely reached the room.
The next morning we discovered that the keys in the door from the outside. And nobody came to get our attention, although we were not more discreet clients. A success.
