Got up early and showed Richard around San Jose. Walked to the host family’s restaurant but it wasn’t open/ Juan saw us and opened up and met Richard but didn’t offer us a coffee even- never mind! Met Jacky for lunch in the market where we bought fish for the evening meal. Then checked out at The Gran hotel and valet got our car for us! Then set off to Llano Grande in the mountains. Couldn’t find the house at first so had to contact the host who directed us back s short way and had Manuel meet us and open the gates for us. The place is fantastic- like on top of the world/ tremendous views! Katie and Dan arrived 3ish but took ages going through immigration but arrived by 7.49pm by taxi! Was so good to see them!
Has a great meal – cerviche , followed by shark steak and fruit for dessert and much wine! Had the champagne to celebrate Richard’s retirement and end of my volunteering! Temperature certainly drops in the evening !
