Waking up

Waking up in Costa Rica is a real pleasure. While we are very close to the equator, we are high enough up that the weather is mild. In the morning, the temperatures are cool. The air is humid, but not sticky hot.
San Jose sits on a plateau surrounded by mountains. Moist air comes up from the tropical parts, hits the cooler mountain air, and builds clouds all day. Most afternoons, the clouds build to the point of raining. Everyone accepts that it may rain for an hour or three, and deals with it.
We have very few bugs, and all of those are interesting, not blood sucking mosquitoes I've seen some huge beetles. But nothing dangerous or annoying.
In the morning, the birds are singing, and swallows swoop around in front of our veranda.
This morning, Deb was up and had coffee made. She is feeling pretty happy about getting to the end of this process of fixing her teeth.
