Geocache Description:

Welcome to Playa Zancudo! We've been coming here since 1999; too many times to count. And since there's a shortage of Geocaches in Costa Rica I am hosting this simple cache series.

This installment wants you to take a load off and ride the bus! To where, I'm not exactly sure. Playa Zancudo is a fantastic out of the way escape destination. I come here to reset. The beach is long, flat, and deserted. The houses and cabinas are private and awesome.

This cache is a simple hide. I want you to find the cache, so please contact me if you have any issues finding it, or for a blatant hint before attempting. Photos and hints should be used. Grab the smilie! You've come all this way, you deserve a smiley. Hopefully it will last but this is a hostile climate. I have arranged with a local business owner to help perform maintenance on the cache should the need arise. They will be able to replace the container should it get lost or destroyed. I will be able to perform maintenance on it myself annually. Be careful, this is a bus stop. You might just randomly show up when Ticos are there waiting for a bus. Don't risk it. Pop across the road to Oceano, have a beverage, and wait. Costa Ricans are curious folk. Don't attract attention. :)

It is a standard black nano container. No tricks. But I know you'll get to the site and curse my name. Before you do, read the hints and look at the picture. This isn't meant to be hard. I WANT YOU TO FIND IT!
