Brenda, it sounds like a fantastic place! :)

After reading one of your posts, I looked up information on Costa Rica.... It sounds like a great place, with a lot of natural beauty! I've never been to Central America.... I've been to the South America (Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil), but that's it!

Brenda, this works for me too.... Sometimes, I forget (believe it or not), thank you for the reminder.... :)

Thanks! :)
