Monday: I LOST MY TATTOO!

Today we are staying at a luxery - finally - resort and spa ~ the J.W. Marriott Hacienda Pinilla near Tamarindo in Quanacaste, the northern most province.  They offered a discount for a coffee scrub at the spa so I got one. This is supposed to be the largest spa in Central America...  All that oily Avon Skin so Soft oil and Insect Repellant is finally off of me.  I had to throw out my fav pillow as it was getting a strange smell.  The awesome 2.5 " bracelet tattoo which a young Indiginous girl from a Darien strip tribe (the Embera Indians) put on me while in Panama has almost disappeared. I will miss it! 

Early this morn we took a Nature Walk along the beach.  From 1-4 today we had free drinks. Fun! Sorry, Ellie, no Mojitos, but the Pina Coladas with fresh squeezed pineapple juice are amazing! 

Finally, a buffet with desserts other than a form of sweetened plantains.  They serve Plantains, papaya, pineapple, some fresh juice, rice/beans and hot chopped vegies at every meal.

Tomorrow is our last full day as we drive back to San Jose. ?6 hours? I hope we get back early enuf for me to go to the centro nacional de arte y cultura.

Buenos noches. Claudia
