What a b.e.a.c.h.

Story Master thinks problem paying may be that I'm in Costa Rica. However... don't remember problem last year. In any case he gave me two extra weeks. So August 31st.

A long plaintive solo note.

Went to Dominical today. Surf up. Tide in. Saw pelicans and crabs. Took some photos. Very few people about. A few surfers. Rain held off until I took the bus back. Fog and rain in the mountains but clear in Pérez.

I bought two beach towels that have the design of the Costa Rican money on it. 5.000 bill is yellow and has a white faced monkey on it. 50.000 is violet and has the blue morpho butterfly. I passed up on the green 10.000 [sloth] and orange 20.000 [hummingbird] (orange and green are my favorite colors) as these will be gifts and monkeys and butterflies are better.

So... left at 9 got back around 2:30. About 2 1/2 hours is enough for me. Walked in the sand barefoot as I rarely go barefoot. Wanted to see whether right foot would swell. Still giving grief.

It was nice to visit. Trip cost me about $6 down and back. I prefer sleeping in the highlands as anywhere with air conditioning isn't cheap and the beach is too warm and humid for me at night.

Today I ate liver with my breakfast rice and beans. Later, chopped up squash. I gave in and got a hamburger at 8-ish. Ate a few lychees. Two cups of coffee ...so much less than what I normally drink in Montana.
