Trip to Costa Rica

In the wake of the success of my photo report on the visit to Hong Kong and the Philippines, I decided to put otchetik to visit Costa Rica, with a stop in Havana.
I was there in the summer of 2005. Budget poezka 6k $ 2-x, time 2 weeks.
Tropical bounty will not be enough, but it should get interesting, because there is a beautiful place, and the Russo-tourists do not have time zasrat his presence to 25% consisting of reserves.
At least on the question of a taxi driver:
-where are you from?
-Russia
It was received even 1 question: - What is the state?
)))))
