Apparently the earthquakes in Costa Rica were not limited to the Alajuela area and those of us that did not feel the previous one had to get scared somehow…yesterday there was a small earthquake in Guanacaste. It was not much but with all that has happen in Costa Rica I can tell you that I actually got pretty scared.

 

The small earthquake rated somewhat 4,3 degrees in the Richter scale and was felt in the lower areas of Guanacaste such as Nosara and Ostional which are not so far from where I live. There were no damages at all but it did give us an adrenaline rush.

 

While we jumped off our seats, the Cinchona area has been having terrible weather which has made the recovery work harder, people are still living in refuges and several pets were rescued…yet there isn’t much that can be done until the weather settles. The Poas Volcano did open its doors to tourists and visitors this week, although I don’t think much people want to go anywhere near that location for the moment.

 

Costa Rica is definitely suffering right now, but I have to admit that everyone is strong and it is amazing to see how the Costa Rica people put all their efforts together to help those in need without hesitating. I am extremely happy to be a part of this nation when I see how warm hearted everyone is.

 

I am off to continue my real estate adventure; today I have several appointments about the purchase of property so I will be pretty busy for the rest of the day. Have a nice day you all.
