Friday hot humid no rain
Met Fernando for breakfast. Organizational meeting 🙂
Air kisses very different here. One only, different facial location.
Have to love a country and hotel that has ceviche, shrimp, large shrimp, as well as smoked salmon on the breakfast buffet. A local speciality is humitas- corn and queso fresco in a corn husk that is not eaten.
Fernando took us around the neighborhoods,Linear park, expensive areas, mall and over to the parque historical. Number one on TripAdvisor's list. Tropical park,zoological gardens, preserved buildings, large range of mangrove areas, drizzle forest etc.
Visit to sweet and coffee, a chain like Starbucks. Another experience where what you think you ordered and what you get is different. Coffee ordering is so very different in every country. Americano turned out to be Bunn machine filtered coffee, also got a large dollop of whipped cream and some very good expresso. Cortado seems to have only one shot.
Coming back from the park we ordered a taxi. The attendant at the park negotiated the price down from 7 dollars to 5. Gave
him a dollar tip and gave the taxi driver six dollars. All seemed happy.
At a supermarket we found tomate arbol. Look it up.
Jacuzzi at hotel perfect!
