26 March 2026 / David & Regula / Central America, Costa Rica, Panama / No comments

The first day in Costa Rica started with fresh coffee, crusty bread, homemade yogurt, muesli, cheese, fried eggs, and a big fruit platter. Mmm…! Luckily, we’d signed up for breakfast at Agi and Guido’s—it was heavenly and plentiful!😊 But not all the guests had as big an appetite as we did, which is why Agi had a loaf of bread left over and gave it to us!
