Good-bye Tambor … hello Papagayo! I didn’t think Costa Rica could get any more beautiful … but hot-dog, I was wrong!
Papagayo is beautiful … the hotel is discretely set into the landscape and … well … beautiful!
The long drive into the hotel was lined with howler monkeys! Yay! The driver said they are ‘roosters’ in the morning and will wake us up … Huntie can’t wait.
We took off {and came in last week} on this small little runway. The airport consists of a short runway and a bench with a tin cover for shade. Oh! and a small parking lot. I remember when we were coming in for the landing, Curt’s looking around asking me if I see an airport. I happened to spot a runway … far cry from an airport though! And pointed it out to him. The fact that he didn’t spot it was shocking and telling.
I was sitting next to Hunter {her against the window} and was telling her we were landing. We were above water and as the plane got lower and lower, I could see the confusion and wonder in her eyes … “seriously? we’re going to land in the water?”
Just as I thought it’d be a beach landing, we hit pavement and landed. Anyway … the same freakiness today with our takeoff. We did a short runway takeoff … basically where the brakes are on, but we go up to full power … so when they take the brakes off we take. off.!!
So there we go, screaming down the runway towards the water and at the last final moment, we take off. I have some photos of the day and some I took from the plane here.
Crabby Wynter made an appearance again today. Here she is on the plane. She was dying of thirst. She finally came to with a can of club soda {for the record, that’s the ‘soda’ they usually get}. And okay, I’ll get over the ‘soda guilties’ already!
We finally made it to the hotel. Got settled in. The girls had a little swim in our plunge pool. Worked up an appetite and …
This is what dinner for a hungry family of six looks like. :)

Thanks for another great post. Where else could anybody get that kind of information in such a perfect way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I am on the look for such information.
When I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new surveys are added- checkbox and from now on every time a comment is added I am four emails using the same comment. Is there however it is possible to eliminate me from that service? Thanks!

One important issue is that if you are searching for a education loan you may find that you will need a cosigner. There are many situations where this is true because you may find that you do not possess a past credit standing so the mortgage lender will require that you’ve someone cosign the financing for you. Good post.
