I have never been there, I have so many places left to go that I will probably stay at home, hiding, because I couldn't make up my mind! How come you like this particular island? Did you accidently discover it? I like the story about that architect, people who really dare to live their dreams and create something that speaks of their hopes and visions. Thank you, YP, such a nice and cheap way to explore a country - through your eyes!!! And hip hurray that you did it once again with that lovely picture , such dim light and mystery about it!!<br />Fairtraderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02517527131786415943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-91729460169834853082017-07-09T10:49:37.358+01:002017-07-09T10:49:37.358+01:00Definitely YP !

The very last time we went they were laying the infrastructure for a very large development between the main town and the beautiful - and then unspoiled - nudist beaches of Papagayo. Those would, I suspect, be your ticky tacky houses.<br />It's been good to revisit the island, and see it again in your photos.
