  1. Waking up in Jaco now. About to head to Manuel Antonio. Does anyone know if there are places to buy a sandwich and drinks in the park? Planning on hiking around and laying on the beach but don’t know if I need to pack in food and drinks or I can just buy some simple things there in the park. Also any recommendations for dinner and drinks are appreciated. Will be staying at Hotel San Baba there.
  2. Came here to post about going to Pok Pok. Leaving with the sads.
  3. There is a craft beer, wine and food place called the Bridge that is really nice and has an extensive beer and wine list as well as some hard-to-find cheeses. Nice place. A little more adult and upscale than most craft beer spots. Or at least it was last time I was there. https://www.thebridgestl.com/
  4. That is the breakfast of kings right there. Other than the plastic utensils. What's up with that?
  5. Let us know what you find out. I’m working in Costa Rica coming up in a few weeks and have been to CR multiple times but wife is wanting to do an early August trip. Panama seems cool but I know little about it other than reading the book JustHookIt rec’ed. I’m heading somewhere. Looking at stuff on Jamaica now but Panama may be a better time.
  6. Great book.
  7. So for the true pickle lovers.... I work in Germany quite often. Usually, I am in Berlin, but I go all over from Hamburg to Munich. Anyway, I really love rural Germany so I try to take weekend train trips to little towns. A couple of years ago, one of these excursions led to me ending up in Lubbenau (two dots above the first U), about an hour south of Berlin. Why bring this up in a pickle thread? Well because Lubbenau is Mecca for pickle eater. This is the first thing I saw when I got off the train. s. '' Also interesting is that people travel around this swampy area by riding in these skiffs. Boats and pickles (and of course beer)--what is not to like? This "town" is very small. You pay a buck or two and get in one of these boats. The boat rower, then takes off down the canals. Our captain was evidently super hilarious (for a German) and everyone laughed constantly at his pickle jokes. I don't sprechen sie Deutsch so I have no idea if he was Chappelle or Schumer. He could push pole a skiff pretty good so I'll give him that. This canal has houses all along the sides and even had little skiff garages for the local folk. Many of these picklers also had set up little stands along the way. They would sell both pickles and beer. I partook in many of each. Every so often, you could even leap out and sit among the trees (and Germans) and get a plate. Anyway, these fools were crazy for pickles and I achieved maximum daily pickle allotment. I got damn close on the beer. Slept on the train back to Berlin and went and got more beer--did not get more pickles. When going through my phone to find these pics, I also came across this one. It seems the locals may also beat the hell out of unruly gars with bundles of carrots. So that's pretty cool too.

  16. Came here as a Bama fan after encountering the UT pimp in Pasadena. Damn, I hate to lose Sark.
  17. Fake an injury on defense to stop the hurry up offense----fake the COVID to get your QB's ribs healed up. Well Saban has a little something for that--Waddle will be healing up more as well.
  18. There are a couple of decent brew pubs in Williams, AZ. Nice little bar/restaurant district when you first roll into town. Lumberyard Taproom in Flagstaff is good. Their Hazy Angel IPA is a good one.
  19. Fun games there. Friend was a ticket salesman and used to give us the leftovers. Good times.
