Thanks Jimbo - the food was sublime - the resturant would only seat about 18 people and the chef came out and talked with us after.

Thanks Jer - well let's just say in most parts the Rum was cheaper than the coke. In one particular resturant when I asked for some 'spiced' rum, they borught out a bottle and gave me a 'shot' to see if it met my approval. When I nodded in the affirmative, I was brought a bottle of coke , a glass of ice and they left the bottle on the table

. Whenver they notice the ice melted in my glass they borught more, same for the coke. In the bill I think I was charged like $10 for drinks (and I had a few ..) . So yeah you could say I had some rum

- I felt like Captain Jack Sparrow

Beautiful seascape. Bass seems to be a hard thing to find in many U.S. restaurants, wonder why. $10 for drinks, some specialty singles are that much. I wondered why so many enjoy Costa Rica, thanks Bob

Oh man...oh man. What a terrific photo. Beautifully captured and peaceful...but making me really homesick for the ocean.

Not sure. Here in Ireland there is little seafood, oddly. But I can get bass at a Chinese grocers -- they gut and scale it for me right there so it is incredibly fresh.

No truer word spoken! The Pacific lobster is nowhere near as tasty.

Definitely a well captured shot of a beautiful scenic bay. Well done. You're tempting me to change lenses for awhile.
