About this Blog

Greetings and welcome!
This is the weblog and travelog for Fred and Carolyn McClain. In this site, we will share the experiences of an adventure we will be undertaking starting mid-July of 2005.

Our plan is to head south from our home in San Diego, thru Mexico and Central America, destination: the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.

The photo in our web header is Grande Beach, near where we will be staying for most of our visit to CR. We’ll be posting notes and photos as we make our way south, and for our return. Accompanying us will be our Rottweiler, Bentley, who will find a whole new universe ahead.

Why Costa Rica? Where else can you travel back in time? Where a “high rise” on the beach is 3 stories, not 33. Where the ocean water is pure and warm, and the native animals still inhabit the towns. It’s a fine place with a great quality of life.

Along with the travelog, we’ll share thoughts on other topics – look in the “Links” section for musings or other additions.

Please, come with us and join our adventure!
