Dry again in Casa de Campo, we first stroll through the gardens up to the road, but eventually we decide to drive to Liberia. So back to the Pan-American and at the first crossroad controlled by traffic lights we turn left into the village. Close to the park we immediately find a parking lot at the curb side. In front of us stands a second Jeep. The fact, that this one is loaded as far as it will go with luggage, lets Annette feel secure. “As long as this car stands in front of us, I’m sure that nothing will happen to us.” Lest nobody gets stupid ideas, a guard walks up and down, who has a close look on the cars of the vacationists. He’s worth a generous tip!
Unfortunately there isn’t much too visit in Liberia. Most of the people are still in the park resting in the shady places and grant themselves cold beverages bought at Copoz Ricos.
Quite next tot he park stands the church of the town, a building typical for Central America and the Caribbean with little ornament inside. Going back the main street you reach furthermore a tiny Equestrian statue of Don Camillo and with that you have already seen the most important sights of Liberia.
After all several souvenir shops are opened, in which there are coloured painted ornaments out of wood, posters, picture postcards and other typical souvenirs. Only stamps we don’t get and the alleged post office we don’t find either. That doesn’t matter any more; as you can post the cards at home (then they will arrive at least).
