    If you are crossing into or out of Costa Rica from/to Panama, be advised that the border CAN and will shut down around lunch time for up to 45 minutes. The Costa Rican border agent shut down in the middle of a big line and sat there while we all waited.

    The last direct bus leaves Sixaola for San Jose (via Bribri, Puerto Viejo, Cahuita and Limon) at 3 pm. Buses stopping at the same places and ending in Limon leave hourly.

    The bus "station" is a basic soda with slightly scary bathrooms (must pay but also bring your own toilet paper), a few video games and beside a fruit stand. Try the green mango with chile and salt.

    Pineapples!
    I loved walking along a path and seeing pineapples growing - little pineapples in the center of plants! I had no idea they grew like this. But I love them!
