Bahia Herradura, Costa Rica

We are back in Bahia Herradura after spending the weekend with our old pals in Tambor. The yacht club there is still not finished and the place is as quiet and secluded as ever. We went to
Spencer and Mark (Not Marks and Spencer)from the Howler Cafe
the Howler Cafe again for dinner and a good time was had by all.
We also made a road trip on the chicken bus to Montezuma, which a small beach town again full of hippies of indeterminate age and decrepitude. We also noted another class of individual, locally known as Trustafarians, namely white kids with dreds and funny hats who also happen to have a trust fund.
The beach and surf were excellent and also some small, boutique type resort hotels looked
Montezuma beach
Montezuma Main Drag
pretty good.
We went back to Herradura to the Marine Store at Los Suenos as my house battery bank has completely failed. The batteries won't hold charge and maintain voltage for more than 12 hours and they will need to be replaced. It's very difficult to get anything but auto batteries here and they will have to come from Florida at a ridiculous price but I don't think I have a choice other than replacing them prior to crossing the Pacific.
Oh well. The joys of boat ownership.
Off to Quepos tomorrow to see the Manuel Antonio National Park
