A long ride

As leaving Arenal this morning we got the best view of the volcano. You could ALMOST see all of it, just the very Top still in a cloud.
We got in the van, this shared shuttle system really works great, and went across the mountains and cloudforests if Monteverde. Beautiful! And cloudy😉
As we came down the mountains, we got on a ferry in Puntarenas. It took us across the Bay of Nicoya to Tambor. Great ferry ride with sunshine and the breeze of the sea.
Then a van again all the way to Santa Teresa. Not long in distance, but the roads here are.... let’s just say you can’t go fast. Santa Teresa Main Street is a dirt road with more holes than actual road.
It’s surfer’s town! Really laid back. Our place is called Esencia and is great. We have a villa with a kitchen and there’s a nice pool area. Not far from the beach.
We were so hungry and tired, and after having had late lunch, we went to the beach.
Amazing!
We hung around with the surfers and tried to swim between all the boards, and stayed until the sun set.
Really tired after a long day on the road, we went to bed no later than 9pm. Pura vida.
