Horseback rides available

Here is a photo of the man offering his horse for horseback rides that I have described during my posts this week. When I took this photo he was trying to solicit some business by riding his horse around town.

The building in the background is our condo on the beach in the Playa Langosta area of Tamarindo.

There are also stables in the area where people can go to have horseback rides.

Speaking of horses, a gentleman from Argentina who works for the property management company that manages and helps to rent our two condos got married about a year or so ago to a woman who is veterinarian exclusively for horses. She graduated from veterinary school in San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica. Although she has lived in in Costa Rica for more than 10 years, she is from Vermont.

Please check out the photos of Montenegro on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site this week.

  1. She must be content to live in the gentle climate of Costa Rica. I'm trying to imagine how I would adapt.

  3. Beautiful portrait and beautiful horse. A girl from Vermont becomes a Costa Rican vet and marries an Argentinian. It truly is a small world!

  6. That would seem to be a tough way to make a living!

    Re your comment on Ocala DP: That sculpture got me in the mood, but not to spend money! ;-)

  8. A beautiful animal, Dave. And, an unusual way to advertise; can't imagine that happening in many US cities.

  9. What great slices of the beach life you have posted this past week. Sorry I've been absent - I had a crazy busy summer and haven't been blog hopping in months. Hope all is well in your life.
