Catching up in Playa Hermosa, Guanacaste

Today I thought I might take the local bus to Playas del Coco in search of cheaper internet and to do a little market shopping. As it turns out, the bus is not as accessible from here as I thought and a taxi each way would be $15... so I decided to stay put. I got up today at 6am, had breakfast at the pool bar...such a treat...and layed in the sun for a couple hours. The sun is so hot between 10am and 2pm, that I try to do other things around the area. Since I was not going to Playas del Coco, I decided to head towards the beach and see what else there was to do. Along the way I stopped in at a hotel to see about internet and finally, internet I could afford...$2/hour. I had lots of catching up to do, so I spent 3 hours there!!!!! As usually the clouds rolled in after lunch as I was heading back to my villa. Decided to sit around the pool and enjoy another afternoon in the sun. It really is nice to have a pool to go to whenever you want....I love it!!! Today is the last day of most peoples vacations in Costa Rica, so they were out in full force at the pool. It started to get a bit rowdy...and not that relaxing...so I headed to my deck to read a book. As I was walking up, I noticed a little friend.....some sort of lizard living in the rocks by my deck. I think he was more scared of me than I was of him, but I was able to get a photo before he ran down into the rocks....they are very cool to watch. I spent the rest of the evening relaxing at my villa...once again...I should be well rested when I get back!!!! I am starting to get a bit antsy. As much as I love the sun and the beach, 11 days of lazing around is about enough for me. I am looking forward to my next destination for a bit more action and cooler weather. I was very tired tonight and headed to bed around 8:30pm...I know, I am a lightweight!!!! Looking forward to my last day in Playa Hermosa. Until then...
