    We just got home.
    Stayed in Guanacaste. The airports single runway was damaged twice and our flight was rescheduled 4 times.
    We have been to Costa Rica many times, always in the dry.
    We decided to experience the wet season because we are looking to have dual citizenship. Wanted to understand what the wet season is truly like. Let’s just say we popped many tires. On roads that were in great shape day one. After 6 - 7 days of rain there were sections of roads we frequently used that looked like the roads of Afghanistan riddled with IED explosions.
    Make sure you do what we did before living here. We are not swayed. Still doing it. But now we have very clear expectations.
    Cheers

      Great advice, Costa Rica needs to be experienced in every season, for good or bad, to be truly appreciated and understood. This was a particularly rough year for you up there and hopefully next year’s rains won’t be so intense. Hats off to you for roughing it out, it makes you appreciate things in a new way🙂👍

    I saw some footage from the floodings and all and we've had that here in Austria too. You can't predict or influence the weather! And I'll be in Uvita on December 1st!

      That is when most people come, the risk of rain is much less, but as with anywhere, it can rain anytime.

    Hola Señor Ed, buenas tardes.
    All excellent advice, heed the warnings about driving and the night driving regardless of rain or shine. Muy pelegroso! ⚠️
    Well I’m late to the comments today for the appearance of El Sol 🌞 in Costa Rica. Such an amazing sight to see after all of this time.
    There were photos and videos flooding the Social Media sites here today. People were so joyful and out driving around going to the beaches as well. As did I well before noon. 😎
    It was like we were all thrown into another Universe that was hard for anyone, local or foreigner to comprehend.
    Yes we may be coming to the end of our rains for a while. I do suspect we will see some nightly rains as usual, and because of the heat of the Sun and all the moisture in the soil.
    I’m curious to see from our rain stats guy in Ventanas, what are final total will be this month.
    Anyway I had a wonderful day driving to Ojachal and checking out the market, the Mexican restaurant and a few other local stores. So pleasant to be in Costa Rica today. 😊

    Watch the news here.
    Cruz Roja, the Bombero firefighters and Policia Fuerza & Transito and locals have done an incredible job clearing areas and helping with evacuations. La Niña is ending this winter with hardships for many. Vets and locals are taking food to starving animals. The people in Costa Rica stand strong with the service and generosity from many!🙏👏
    Pura Vida💜

    We are good here in Nuevo Arenal. Its beautiful and the volcano is out in full clear view. We have had 20MPH winds and rain in the afternoon. Thinking about everyone on the coast. It is crazy.

    The Liberia airport is shutdown for repairs! In Montezuma it has been slowly dwindling, but still rains everyday, 50% of the time
