One of many fruit stands along the Caldera Highway.

Jeden z wielu straganów owocowo-warzywnych, przy głównej drodze Caldera.

On our way from San Jose to Uvita, a little village on the Pacific cost of Costa Rica. We stopped to buy some fresh fruits. Surprisingly, fresh Papaya or Mango taste quite different when they are harvested not weeks, before they get to your table, but maybe hours.... hm... what an innovative idea?

W drodze z San Jose to Uvita, mały przystanek aby kupić świerze owoce.

Maxi Pali grocery store in Jaco. We stopped here to buy supplies.

The house we stayed for a week in Uvita.

Dom w którym mieszkaliśmy przez tydzień w Uvita.

We arrived late to our cottage called "Ocean Melody". This will be our villa by the ocean for the next week.
---------- Polish:
"Ocean Melody" w nocy. Nasza willa przy ocanie.

A little patio where we were spending most of our time.

Małe patio na którym spędzaliśmy większość czasu.

Our first breakfast the morning after arriving, egg omlets with all kinds of fruits and, of course, delicious Costa Rican Coffee.

Nasze pierwsze śniadanie po przyjeździe, omlet z sałtką warzywną, no i oczywiście przepyszna, kostarykańska kawa.

A little frog acrobatics, found those two trapped in the swimming pool well.

Znalazłem te dwie w studzieńce przy basenie następnego ranka.

Getting gas. Always supper friendly stuff.

Na stacji benzynowej w Uvita, obsługa jest super.

Very friendly police on the streets. Their presence is very reasuring.
------------ Polish:
Policja jest bardzo widoczna na ulicach i to jest dobrze, czujesz się naprawdę bespiecznie.

Street vendor selling his ware.
There lots of people selling different stuff on the streets. I think this is mostly for locals but if they see tourists sure they will approach you. But they are never pushy or insistent. You say no, they leave you alone.

Selling food snacks.

The farmers market in San Isidro is held weekly, every Thursday. The fruits and veggies are as fresh and as "organic" as they could be, they should satisfy even the most picky vegan.

First I couldn't figure out why there there are so many middle age gringo men around the market, pretending to be interested in the produce.... After taking this picture I understood why...
Of course I'm kidding but there is no denying that there are lots of beautiful Ticas behind the stalls.... it's always a pleasure to buy beautiful, ripe melons... and other fruits.

This lady was making a freshly squeezed orange juice with a a simple, manual press. And those oranges are straight from her own orange tree.

Here is "the Dude", selling chocolate pieces, freshly made last night, he says....

Some of the fruits and veggies I've never seen before.

Niektórych warzyw i owoców nigdy nie widziałem w życiu.

Major fruit and veggies market in San Isidro De El General, definitly worthwhile visiting.

Duży bazar warzywno owocowy w San Isidro, definitywnie opłaca się go odwiedzić.

...and there are lots of interesting characters in the market...

And here are the longest beans I've seen in my life and called guaba in Costa Rica. You don't eat the beans inside but the delicious, sweet coating that covers the beans.

Mangoes, mangoes.... and more mangoes. Our mangoes from the super don't even compare in taste.

Exploring San Isidro after the market. It is a beautiful little town with a park in the centre of town.
Zwiedzamy San Isidro po zakupach na localnym targu. Jest bardz malownicze z parkiem w samym centrum.

Uvita village. At the end of this road is the entrance to the Marino Ballena National Park.

The road into the mountains is full of twists, curves and hair raising inclines. And it's all surrounded by the tropical forests and breathtaking vistas. There is no other way to experience this but to rent a car and drive it.

Niedaleko Ojochal jest mała restaruacja w górach. Tu przyjachaliśmy na lunch

Black Ctenosaur or Black Iguana is also refered to by Ticos as Tree Chicken or Gallina de Palo.
