WE GET NICE LETTERS
Hi Isabel and Norman,
Just want to Thank-you for a very enjoyable stay in your bed and breakfast.
We all had a great time even if the last time was when we had to depart your beautiful country. We look forward to visiting you again. Thanks! We wish you both the best always,
Andrea, Jeff, Otto and Sunny
Shane, Jason and Emeri
Hola Norman and Isabel,
I have wanted to send this letter to the both of you for some time but have been quite busy with various things since my return.
At any rate, I wanted to thank you both very much for your many kindnesses and hospitality while I was with you at the Vida Tropical. Thank Virginia as well, please. I had a nice time and this was mainly because of you. I am slow in starting my immigration processing but will actually start tomorrow with certain documents. I have started on selling my my house but this is slow as I must make certain repairs on it before I can even put it on the real estate market. Everything takes time. But, all will eventually be done and I will become a pensionado living somewhere in Costa Rica.
Thanks again for your kindnesses and I will look you up before I return.
Best regards, also to Jose and his nice wife Johanna,
Bob Siegel
Greetings Isabel and Norman,
Thank you so much for our delightful stay at vida tropical. I will certainly recommend it to others making their way to Costa Rica! You have created quite a family feel and I think that is wonderful. Thanks again for your hospitality!

Greetings from Virginia, Jose!
My husband and I spent a few wonderful days at Vida Tropical several years ago. We have fond memmories of your gracious hospitality, of meals with your other interesting guests, and, of the casita in your courtyard. Loved the bunnies on the doorstep! I'm coming back to CR sometime in the next six months.
Also, we hired Alex to drive us to Arenal and Cahuita. Does he still work with you? We had so much fun traveling with him. Can you tell me how to contact him?
I know you're a busy guy, so, thanks so much for any information you can supply.
Warm wishes,
Gretchen VanTassel
Hola Norman and Isabel, buenos dias!
Just a quick message to thank you for all your wonderful hospitality, food, advice and company, help with organising everything from cars to places to stay - it was so fantastic to stay with you in your lovely home and to meet you. The kids talk about you all the time and send lots of love (and hugs!). You truly made our stay in Costa Rica: we cannot thank you enough.
Hope everything is going well and look forward to hearing about the arrival of Nicholas ...
Thank you again
Rachel, Joe, Rowan, Rhys and Jenna Pritchard
