Hurricane

While Costa Rica is generally too far south to be hit by a hurricane, that doesn't mean it escapes their wrath.  


For the past few days, hurricane Irene has been raging off the coast of Florida - she is HUGE - and is dragging warm moist air from anywhere she can find it - that means pulling air masses from the Pacific, across Costa Rica and into the hurricane - all meaning RAIN for Costa Rica - especially the coastal regions.


Rain also has its rewards - stunning sunsets and amazing plant growth.

We had some extra work done on the landscape - the potted plants - planted!  and some additional stepping stones to let you walk on a hard surface and avoid the wet grass (wet feet slip on the tile!!)
