it wasn't bad, like you said other than
the shower, but in a entirely different category than the one we stayed at for two nights in San Isidro, Hotel Diamante Real

yep it's in reference to the
exposed wires...however these showers often are what I would call cold as this one was. It's only tolerable for me if I'm very hot to begin with, which I was.

i didn't but I did touch it with my
fingers...it was WARM!!!!!! Hard to believe it's the same frigid ocean that we have at the Oregon Coast!

they must be darn hardy insects to survive in Central Oregon as well as Costa Rica

our suicide shower...note the exposed wires

Oh, I thought the term 'suicide shower' referred to the lack of hot water but I think it has something to do with exposed wires in a wet environment!

El Priss Hotel in Quepos

Too bad it had suicide showers! Looks nice otherwise.

Wow! Looks like rush hour on the Metro. How was the smell (people + heat=phew!).

a sucide shower is when...
there are exposed wires to the shower head....we had that in our hotel in Quepos and I had it in the guest house I stayed in San Pedro/San Jose also in Guatemala both times...it's very very common but makes us gringos a bit nervous

6th February 2011

too crowded...stay tuned to my next blog entry of our bus trip to Quepos
