Birthday Retreat Tomorrow

Monday morning Walter will drive me to Xandari Nature Resort, just about an hour away, north of our Provincial Capital, Alajuela (location of San Jose Airport) for my second visit to a very “arty” nature reserve, farm and hotel made the way I think Frank Lloyd Wright would have designed it! And every room and garden is filled with art!

The gardens, nature trails (many birds) and 5 waterfalls are fabulous as are all the meals and the Spa where you can have a private Jacuzzi overlooking the Central Valley, as will my room! Though I will be hiking and birding every morning, this is more of a relaxation retreat than some of my trips and I might even get a relaxation massage!   🙂

I was there last July:  2018-July-14-18–Xandari Nature Resort   (photos)

I made a photo book on that trip too:  Xandari: Enchanted by Nature   with the book cover my featured photo at top today.   🙂

I do believe that I have the best possible retirement that anyone could have!   🙂   And I’m guaranteed a Happy Birthday too!    🙂

My wish is to stay always like this, living quietly in a corner of nature.
