Limon, Costa Rica

Hello from Costa Rica,
Today it is a very warm 85 degrees under blue skies.  We are docked in Limon for the day.  Limon is a port on the East side of Costa Rica and a town of about 100,000 people.  One can see the mountains that line the middle of this country.  Ticos as the people are called are very proud of the fact that this country is peaceful and has no standing army or any military whatsoever.  Eco-tourism is their greatest commodity.  We walked around the port and saw lots of handicrafts and beaches.  Their common greeting in this country is MUCHO GUSTO.
Last night we were entertained by Doc Severinsen, he can still play that trumpet even in his 80's.  We saw him up close by the pool and he is a very small man,  Tonight there is a commedian for entertainment.  Hope you are all well,
Love Gwen
