Monkey's Everywhere

Coming home from the beach one afternoon we found we had some house guest.

They were everywhere as we were trying to make our way from the car to the front door.


Sometimes you pick a lemon but end up getting a Castle

The last stop on our trip was Quepos/ Manuel Antonio, where I had rented a 1 bedroom Condo with a view of the ocean. What is there not to like about that? As always I emailed a few days ahead to find out where to pick up the keys. In the responds a few red lights went off making us start to wonder about the place we were renting. We were told to go to the office to pick up keys and there is plenty of parking there. Which got us thinking about just how far from the unit would we be parking. After lugging all our stuff around for many days we were feeling very tired of moving it once again.
There is a restaurant which is part of the condominium complex which is where we went for lunch while our unit was being cleaned.


All during lunch we were eye level with 2 of the units and watched a women cleaning one. Could this be ours? After being in such fabulous secluded places we would now be on display for a restaurant for the next week. That combined with the construction going on directly behind the unit and the traffic going by (it is next to the road) our peaceful, tranquil rainforest feeling was quickly disappearing.
