Did some condo work in the morning (call back to Canada) and then we all sort of called of the beach day that was planned - so we went to visit Yves in Uvita.
He and his former partner built a local hotel in 1996 and sold it in 2001 - he built a home in Uvita and suggested a day by the pool - it was actually clear for part of the day and we could watch the clouds covering Ojochal to the south - spectacular (modest but amazing) home with great grounds and the most awesome view - the Osa to the south - Cano Island - the Whales tale - the 3 sisters - and mountains of San Josecito to the north. After a tour of the house and property we spent 2 hours in the pool (1/2 of that while it rained) drinking beer and chatting while the MANY parrots played in the gigantic Royal Palm above our heads. After we dried off we headed to the local pizza joint (beach side of the highway just before the Whales and Dolphins turn off) that just opened - italian guy covered in tattoos and his tica wife with a brand new baby - great pizza! Nice to enjoy the day with new friends - next weekend our turn to show off!
Rain most of the night and the day dawned clear - which lasted until about 12 - at which point the sky opened and we have had the most rain we've seen yet - heavy - no visibility - constant - - water everywhere!
