We've been in the high 80s for the last 5 or 6 days.

I'm glad to see you made it to Costa Rica. Are you happy you made the move?

What a view! You must be very happy there.

I was in Costa Rica once. It was a port on a Panama Canal cruise. It was very beautiful. I remember it fondly.

Also mix with locals, they would help you navigate new surroundings. And be careful with rip currents.

Other than that enjoy.

I hope you enjoy yourself, and please keep us all updated on the pros and cons of life outside the US. There are a lot of people considering a move.

All the best...

To Costa Rica? Would you be ok if she reached out through email to you.

Lovely photo. Secret envy on my part. With elderlies and grandkids and so on …. Just isn’t an option.
