Costa Rica is a completely different world when compared to its sister Central America nations. The country has a lower infant mortality rate, a lower suicide rate, longer average life span and a higher rate of literacy than the United States. It has no army or military force of any kind, and universal health care has been in place for over three decades. It is the second smallest country in Central America and is just about the size as West Virginia. There are 50,00 US citizens living in CR.
Our destination was the GOLFO DE PAPAGAYO (The Gulf of the Parrot). We opted to do a JET SKI & ATV ADVENTURE and what an adventure it was!!!. I am glad that we lived to tell about it!
