I think I just said, "We are a little bored; it's time to return to our home." I can't be certain though. Hold on, I'll check on Google Translate...Whoops. It says, "We Are a Few Boring, This Time to Return to Us Home."
Oh well, close enough.
Anyway, the surf is smallish. The tides are all wrong in the morning and evening. The wind is too strong from the wrong direction. We have no car. The waterfalls are all dried up at this time of year. The agricultural demonstration farm we'd planned to visit is permanently closed. Basically this adventure is over. I've managed to catch two good waves a day for the last two days, but it took more than an hour to do it each time.
Frustrating that when I check the daily surf photos from Nosara/Guiones I see that the surf was really good the last couple of days. Next time I come in the winter, I'll spend all my time in the Nicoya Peninsula and bypass this area altogether. This is a sure bet in June, but it's frustrating at this time of year. It's way too sensitive to tide, so much so that I should have planned our stay around days when the tide was high near sunrise and sunset. In the summer, when the surf is bigger, you can always find a wave to surf somewhere around here. There's not only Playa Hermosa, but also Esterillos Oeste, and the reef break called Playa Escondida.
Thus, at this point, I find myself planning activities for the kids in Orange County and looking a travel guides to New South Wales.
Meh.
