Costa Rica 06

In 1997, I roamed around in Costa Rica for two and a half weeks. It is a beautiful country with a laid-back attitude toward life, and I have always wanted to return. In March of 2006, I finally did so with my fine bride, Mary. From March 3 to March 12, we were part of a group with Caravan Tours, returning home two days later, on the 14th. If you would care to peruse them, here are some of our pictures.
