Surrounded by beautiful scenery Continued from page 36 a different country, and find the prices cheaper than at home especially this year with our strong dollar. It is fun to cook it ourselves, and then linger over desert. It is lovely to make new friends, and have a drink or a barbecue together. The property has 24-hour security, normal in a developing country, and the friendly guards practice their English, and teach you Spanish. On the property itself there are several eco walks around the mangrove trees, lots of photo opportunities with the mountains as a backdrop. The area boasts the second largest tropical botanical garden in the world. There's a swimming hole, a man-or woman-eating plant, and a bamboo forest that makes you feel like you're walking in a cathedral. So what will all this cost? The best news is that air has come way down. I found a price of $616.78 taxes included, when three years ago, the cheapest fare was $800. The casitas rent for $425 a week US, for one bedroom, and $575 for the two bedroom a huge savings from three years ago. Three years ago, it cost $3,600 for a month including air and transfers, this year it will cost $2,932 for both of us. I can't wait. -- Sam Ion can be reached at sion10@cogeco.ca.
