Costa Rica Big Game Fishing !

Costa Rica is a great spot for sport fishing and our area of Guanacaste is world renowned.  We are pleased to recommend a great company for sport fishing here in paradise.  Dream On Fishing has two beautiful boats fully equipped including great crews. Owner Randy Spate has been a sport fisherman since he was a kid and realized his dream of owning his own boat in Costa Rica.  Last week he took out a couple and they caught 15 sail fish which is a new record for Dream On, eclipsing the old record of 8.  Randy and his crew can help you catch the big ones and the not so big ones.  Outstanding mahi mahi,wahoo, rooster fish, sail fish and of course the elusive marlin.  Have a look at Randy's website www.dreamonsportfishing.com to see all the great fishing photos.

Bird Watching and Cycling !

I was out for my morning bike ride at 4:45 AM and enjoying the cool, fresh rainy season morning. I was riding along the Truncas road passing the sugar cane fields and rice fields when I spotted and heard some old friends from Canada.  Two of my favorite birds as a youth came flitting by for a quick visit and song.  Their songs brought back many memories for me as a kid in South West Saskatchewan.  The song of the Red Wing Black Bird is quite distinct and melodious coupled with the wonderfull song of the Meadow Lark.  These little guys are like us and have chosen to live here in paradise all year around - no return trips to Canada and the US in the spring.  I guess they like the all round summer - Pura Vida :-)
