Hanging out on the corner

Here is a photo of some villagers who have gathered to chat with friends in the shade on a warm Sunday afternoon. As this photo reflects, bicycles are a popular form of transportation in rural Costa Rica, even on roads that are not paved.

The intersection where they have gathered is a corner of the town square football (soccer) field that I showed yesterday.

Tomorrow and the following days I will show you what happened next, which is a something that would definitely not happen in the middle of a town in the USA, Canada or Europe.

We have photos of Dubrovnik on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia this week on on our travel photo site, Viva la Voyage. It is a charming place and if you have not been there, you should enjoy the preview on our website.

  3. That would be a great place to ride a bike! A nice bike tour would sound good to me.
