Sarchi is a quick bus ride from San Jose where you can buy lots of souvenirs and a very walkable town where you can explore for a day. The city is famous for the ox carts seen all over Costa Rica! There's also a larger than life ox cart in the center of town.

We arrived late in the middle of the night. We were lost at first for where to go in the excellent parade, but then the attendant had our keys and parking spot ready, very easy and relaxing checking. Wonderful room, nice beds and furniture. Amazing.

#Coffee #CostaRica #CentralAmerica Coffee seedlings On board a cruise, we made a stop in Puntarenas and went to see a coffee plantation. Very interesting and enlightening tour of all stages of the coffee cycle, from planting to packaging, through harvesting, grain drying and roasting. Mudas de café A bordo de um cruzeiro, fizemos uma parada em Puntarenas e fomos conhecer uma plantação de café. Passeio muito interessante e esclarecedor de todas as etapas do ciclo do café, desde o plantio até ao empacotamento, passando pelas etapas da colheita, secagem dos grãos e torrefação.
