DP Series Jacó - Ride por Ciduad Colón hasta Parrita
Como parte del DP Series- Jacó (Doble Proposito Series) el sábado nos fuimos de ride a Jacó. Salimos de Escazú, nos enrumbamos hacia Ciudad Colón, pasamos por la universidad para la Paz, luego por otros lugares que no recuerdo hasta llegar a Parrita. Como es normal en un país del trópico, hizo calor, humedad y lluvia. No me canso de recorrer éste país tan lindo en el que tuve la suerte de nacer.
As part of the DP series - Jacó (Double purpose series) on Saturday we went for a ride to Jacó, We left from Escazú to Ciudad Colon, passing through the University for the Peace, then for other towns I don't remember until we arrived to Parrita. Like everyday on a tropical country, we had a lot of humidity, high temperatures and rain. I will never get tired of riding through this beautiful country, one that I am lucky enough to call home.

We offered our Awakening Peace building skills in reconciliation and Compassionate Listening. Our dear friend Bob Lucas was our support in finding the campus and attending our meeting and tour of the campus.
Universidad para la paz. TicoFAm
En Ciudad Colón, la universidad tiene amplias áreas verdes y un sendero, me parece que de más de un kilómetro a lo que dice un rótulo.
Pueden llevar a sus amigos perrunos, y nos llamó la atención que hay muchos ranchos en muy buen estado con su asador, por lo que para llevar un poco de chorizo y silverio, vale la pena.
Este fue un paseíto familiar con nuestros amigos de infancia, y sus hijos, por lo que se armó un bonito grupo para pasar el día.
