3-day trip Costa Rican style- last part


Home Sweet Home
part 7 of 7
Sleep in until 8am and go to breakfast (included with the hotel). Eggs cooked on the spot and lots of fresh fruit. There were some challenges but they were minor. Our ride comes around 9 and off we go. We have been carrying two sewing machines each night into the hotels up until now. They are going to a repair shop right in the middle of downtown so it is better that we take them on Saturday. We are ready to unload them as we never left them in the car overnight for fear of theft and they don't belong to us.
After driving in circles for about 20 min, we locate our shop. The place and folks are really nice and they will take care of the machines for about $25/ea plus parts. They'll be ready in a week but I'm not sure how we will pick them up yet. Hopefully someone will head to San Jose soon.
The original three of us head back to Flamingo with one stop for food a few hours out. We pass police and the usual slow cars and trucks on the road home. Back at about 4pm, we don't leave the house for the next 36 hours.
