Rain? What rain?

The other day we got some e-mails and phone calls from concerned guests. They had seen the news (mostly on CNN.com) about the flooding in Costa Rica.

They were worried that they would be unable to get to us. The rains have been lighter than normal this year (we're not approaching drought stage, but it is very dry) so we were a bit baffled, until we looked around on the Web.

The Caribbean Coast, usually very dry at this time of the year, had been hammered by rain and the rivers were overflowing and a lot of roads were closed. That is quite a ways from us, so we didn't know much about it. We had some guests that made it from the Caribbean side to us a couple of days ago, and they said it took a while, but they were able to make it over just fine.
