Travel vacations

Right after the COCAS Zdenka came to Costa Rica to spend 1 month in Central America with me and Premek. As soon as there will be some page created about our trip, I will let you know. Now I will just mention the highlights of the trip through Costa Rica and Panama:

• When Zdenka was leaving from Czech Republic, she asked us, what kind of beer we want her to bring. As Premek was indifferent, I said Gambrinus and was looking forward to have a Czech beer in Central America. But when Zdenka took out of her bag 4 six-packs of Gambrinus, both me and Premek were not able to speak of amazement, as we were expecting something like 1 - 2 cans per head.
• The second day of our trip through Costa Rica (Premek and Zdenka spent week in Nicaragua before that) we came to small town and found a hostel, where in that time, there were just two rooms occupied. Few minutes after we got to the room, someone knocked on the door, and when Premek opened it, we just heard: "Dobry vecer." (=Good evening in Czech). In the middle of nowhere, to the hostel, where there was almost no one, came another Czech person - girl from Prague, who was traveling in Costa Rica as well.
• Next day we wanted to visit Vulcan Arenal, but as it was in clouds, we stuck to the plan B (which was of course created at spot) and went to the thermal spa, where we enjoyed 35 to 45 degrees in water. That time the air temperature was only around 30 degrees...
• Visit of Vulcan Irazu - so far the highest point I reached - 3432 meter above the sea level. The only dark mark on this nice altitude is, that to approximately 3000 meters we were taken by bus and climbed only thee last few meters to the top of the Vulcan.
• Visit in Coffee factory, where we were introduced to the the process from the plant until the coffee cup.
