Where to start?!! Hmmm...as a brief explanation for the one picture that managed to get posted: I downloaded the typical 5 that are allowed by this system - which took 20 minutes - and then as I began writing for the first photo the remaining 4 disappeared. I decided to post the one and see if I could retrieve the others but, despite the fact that the system periodically saves its data, I couldn't locate them. I'll try again tomorrow and the next day so I can get you all updated. Oh, and then the computer went nuts and started loading over 60 new internet pages ... so, here I am, again.
Briefly (because it's 2 p.m. and I've only eaten a granola bar and part of a chayote [not coyote] - I'm huuuuungry!!!), La Iguana Chocolate was fantastic! I'll give some extra detail when I get some photos posted ... but, our bus broke down about a mile away from the farm so we had the wonderful opportunity to gain an intimate estimation of our surroundings ... we walked. When we arrived we were surprised to see that the farm did not 'look' at all like the photos on their website! It was kind of like watching a preview for a movie and the only parts they show you are the really good parts. However, the family that runs the farm is sensational!!! And the country-side is sparklingly beautiful! AND the community of Mastatal was/is incomparible! We loved our stay and all it included.
Now, the 'girls' and I are on separate paths ... we are broadening our experience by covering more ground ... they have gone to the Atlantic coast and then on in to Panama whilst I am traveling down the Pacific coast to Pavones and the Yoga Farm (having no interest in seeing Panama at this time). Plus, A and J are arriving in TC a week earlier than planned - I am not.
What this means for me is that I will be traveling solo in this 'not as foreign as it once was' beautiful country. It will definitely challenge my Spanish skills, but then, they need challenging. I feel comfortable and capable of this new direction even though I've never traveled alone before ... it's amazing what turning 50 will do to a girl! No worries ...

"Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart" (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)
