This is an assortment of photos taken from near my home. I live 5km from the stadium in Alajuela on the road to Carrizal. (That will probably tell a cab driver what he needs to know.) This is about 10km from Juan Santamaria airport, the place where virtually all international flights end up.
My house is at about 1.25km above sea level. (The airport is a little
less than 1km.) Thus, I have a great view of the central valley.
The hill continues up to the north of me with the Poas volcano
northwest and the Barva volcano to the northeast.

This picture is taken from my front porch. There are people in the field picking coffee. Then I went to take a shower and felt like these people were in the shower too as the field starts about four feet from my shower. | 1/9/2003 |
