Living the Pura Vida

This winter is our first full winter in our new home in Atenas, Costa Rica.  The locals have a phrase for life in this part of paradise -- Pura Vida.  And that's what we have.  It's quiet here -- which is just what we need to get away from the chaos of Washington (especially this year).  But we've had plenty of visitors as well -- our friends Nancy and Rita and Jan and Sandra. Paul's brother Jim, and nephew Dustin.  Ahead are most of the Kunzer clan .... all of whom we get to share this slice of heaven with.

Here are a few pictures -- from Poas volcano, from La Paz waterfall park, from Jaco beach, our new cats, Luke & Leia, and a panorama of our home.  Enjoy:
