Liberia, Costa Rica
Anna's entry:Rob and I could not believe what we saw... After weeks of traveling in poor Nicaragua, Honduras, and Guatemala, we felt we got back to the US when we arrived to Costa Rica. Nobody yelled at us to hurry to get on a bus, nobody short-changed us at the bank or the store, and people actually looked and talked happy... We went to a grocery store in Liberia, and our jaws dropped - we have not seen that much food in a while. After weeks of eating at dirty stalls, it was actually a kind of nice to see more variety, AND the chocolate was actually available! What a treat it was! We definitely did not expect such a contrast in standard of living with other neighboring countries.
