We are considering taking an inexpensive vacation to Costa Rica in late March. Being rather independent and valuing our privacy at times, should we avoid the package deals and rent a car? We recently returned from Crete, where we stayed in a historical villa in a small village, and were able to explore as needed once we got use to the roads/stick shift,ect.. We want to hike in the rainforest and see the best of Costa Rica for $2000- $3000 including airfare, but not necessarily meals.. Two meals a day are more than adequate, and 7-10 days would be about right. We don't particularly care about the beaches but want to see the volcano, butterflies and exotic flora/fauna/animals. It will be our 7th anniversary, and we are in our mid-50's , so nothing TOO strenuous. Any suggestions, itineries, recommendations towards places to stay, tour, or eat, will be very much appreciated. We LOVE nature, natives, walking, coffee and chocolate!

What variety of tree has the pink flowers that grow along the Charles River in Boston?

I remember being at the Hatch Shell and the flowers would fall into the river and it was the most beautful sight. But I can't remember what trees/flowers they were!

Stamford CT?

My mother just got 4 Job offers. One in El Passo Texas, One In Stamford CT and two in Washington State, Bothell and I forgot the name of the other place. Shes considering taking the CT one. If she does chances are I'll go with her. I have never been to any of the states and was wondering what CT is like.

Is there anything to do there? I think NYC is only 30min from there. Is Stamford in perticular a safe area, low crime and such?

I lived in Wisconsin almost my entire life and worry that if I where to move to say CT I would not fit in, but I'm really tired of midwestern living.

I could never see myself living in Texas so I really does not have a change of heart and take that one haha.

So point being, what does anyone know about Connecuit? If you live there do you like it, and would you say it's a good place to raise a family?3

I am looking for great place to snorkel on Pacific side of Mexico---Gulf of Cortez is fine?

I went to Cabo---best beach---water was rough. Been other places---I am 61 and have bad legs so want water that is very calm. Also, I want the water warm---about 80 degrees fine and I want to snorket from beach or hotel---not go out in boat. What is the best month to travel and do you know a good hotel?
