6/22 - 6/24 Manuel Antonio

Palmar Norte isn´t a town that you need to spend more than about 10 minutes in.... So to see the friendly face of our dear friend Scott Braman calling from around the dusty corner where the bus had dropped us off was a wonderful surprise (we thought he wasn´t picking us up for another few hours, but never underestimate Scott´s early morning motivation).

After our journey into Osa and Corcovado, the next few days were a perfect stop. Scott and his mom Sukie drove us back to Manuel Antonio where we chilled with the whole Braman clan (most importantly, cute little Athena - Scott´s 18 month old niece).

We stayed at the newest Scott-Chip (Dad)-Barbara and Jim (Aunt and Uncle) endeavor... The Blue Banyan Inn (http://bluebanyaninn.com). Part of an emerging eco-finca up in the hills, the place is amazing. For any of you looking for a little rest and relaxation, you need to check this place out. Barbara has some amazing monkeys that you can visit with during your stay. Chip and Scott still have some land and in-progress villas for sale if you´re interested in something more long-term...Email us if you don´t know Scott and we´ll make a connection. Seriously, if we weren´t spending most of our savings on this little year of adventure, we´d be considering it ourselves :)
