It is already that time of the week, and the 10th edition of the Tropical Homes local news update is here! Hurrahs all around! It has been a beautiful week rain and and incredibly hot sun, and there is a lot going on for what is supposed to be a quiet rainy season. The many new additions and changes to the town over the past year are already showing the changes they brought with them, and it seems that we are in for a much more active and exciting low season. Whether visiting or local, it’s great to share this amazing place with others, and watch it continue to grow.
But enough of that for now, let’s see what’s the low down and what’s on the way up!
- Specials and happy hours at Restaurant Mar y Sol in Flamingo if you love food and/or drink. Happy hours from 4-6 on Friday and Saturday, and a delicious new bocas tray that you must try. Mar y Sol’s famous all you can eat buffet is on Wednesday the 27th, and the theme for the night is Japanese food. Show up early, for the buffets do sell out, and the food does get eaten!
- The Pura Vida Ride Stand Up Paddle Battle event was a huge success this weekend in the Las Catalinas development. Contestants of all ages competed in different categories for some amazing fun on the ocean, with a distance race, sprint races, and a family race with as many people on the board as possible. Look forward to more exciting events during the rainy season from these businesses.
- The service organization Abriendo Mentes not only celebrated its 3rd anniversary this year, but welcomes its new project director Lindsey Losasso and her husband to the area! Drew and Meradith have done so much in this community, and we wish them the best of luck as they move on to the next step of their journeys. Stop by the Potrero Salon Comunal or the office to find out more information about volunteering or service in the area.
- For any expats in the area, or anyone who likes a fiesta, the Happy Snapper Restaurant in Brasilito is holding a July 4th barbecue bash! The best parts of July 4th in America, fireworks, barbecue, and softball, but down here in the tropics! It starts at 11, bring an umbrella and a lounge chair, or call 2654-4413 for more information.
That’s what’s happening around you if you are in the wonderful beach land of Costa Rica. Maybe we’ll see each other around town, have a great week!
