Ship's Log:
Yesterday was spent ashore in Drakes Bay. A very quiet, small community that is the last outpost before Costa Ricasī Corcovado national park. We left this morning after breakfast and traveled 30 miles north to Bahia Uvita. Situated at the foot of the tropical rainforest is the breath taking Uvita beach. Miles of sand very similar to Long Beach on Vancouver Island. With a spit that sticks way out into the Pacific and the mid twenties water temp we enjoyed a wonderful afternoon. Due to the friendly locals and lack of tourists the plan is to stay another day tomorrow and then move on to Quepos.
