<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jhonn, post: 384413, member: 5418&quot;]Oh, I met quite a few American AND British ex-pats there, especially where we were staying (Puerto Viejo)...and I&#039;m sure I could have found a bank teller fluent in English, but I prefer to use Spanish when I can.</p><p><br /></p><p>The scenery is certainly beautiful. I would love to visit other Central American countries (Panama, Belize, Guatemala), but it would be hard not to choose Costa Rica over the others since it&#039;s such a nice country.</p><p><br /></p><p>Didn&#039;t get to see Arenal this time around...or last time for that matter. Maybe on my third trip there? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>And Frank, if you want a copy, I will definitely order an extra one as long as they let me order them in the first place. If anyone else would like to order a copy through me, PM me and I&#039;ll let you know if it&#039;s feasible or not! $3, in Spanish and English, full-color...published by the Museos del Banco Central and certainly the most comprehensive book (booklet?) on official Costa Rican counterstamps!</p><p><br /></p><p>They also had a huge color book detailing their entire collection for about $50, and another book just on Costa Rican coffee plantation tokens! Talk about specialized reading...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
