For them it is a world of art where they are breaking new ground. There are more than enough museums in the capital of Costa Rica, San Jose. But there are no real "art" museums yet. One way of showing what their artist's have is in the artists themselves displaying there art in their own environments, their homes. There is a tour that takes you to 5 or 6 artist's homes in a day's tour, and you get a chance to really experience the their work.

7. Costa Rica Vacation Best Flight Out Of Town

I got on the phone and called a local travel agent and had a little talk. I learned quite a bit. You can book your own flight because these days there aren't many tour discounts.

The Crazy girl is thinking of retiring there and buying property. She asked me if I would consider doing that. I told her that maybe we should just get a vacation under our belt and then we can think about moving there. Quite frankly folks, the only date I have had in a while on a Saturday night is my 7-year old grandson, so it is safe to say that I need to get away. .....
