Monday Feb 22

San jose is nothing like Cabo. This is the beach when we went walking in the morning. Not a soul anywhere except for a couple of fishermen cathching their dinner. The area is a cab ride away from downtown San Jose that costs about $5.00 each way. We spent some time looking at the art shops and enjoying the local culture. While standing in one of the shops I felt something on my leg, I brushed it away and it was a bee that was trying to get every pound of flesh from me. We hurried down the street to get some ice and I tripped on the step going into a bar and pulled my hamstring not much more could go wrong. The ice helped the bee sting and the tequila helped the hamstring.

In the middle of town square there was a quiet demonstration consisting of about 300 individuals. The individuals were squatters taking water and electric from the air port. The city decided to kick them off the land that was not theirs so they had a few tents in town square and were staging a quiet demonstration. The information we received was there are about 11.000 of these people on this land. The next weeks could be interesting.

Below is a picture of one of the Artists shops in San Jose this area is nothing like Cabo .

We finished our time in town at a bar named "Shooters", this is a bar owned by a Candian man and it was fun. We had a peaceful night in the hut the cat only was on the roof one time. We were the only guests so it was really quiet except for the dogs barking and crickets.
