Sunday (Sept. 20) I met up with new buds Elena Ross, Diane Hunter & Iris for a spin at the FUNNEST THING in Sabana Park - riding a SEGWAY!!!!
First off, in the 5 years I've been coming to Costa Rica & living here - I'd NEVER actually gone INSIDE of Sabana Park!!
I'd seen SEGWAYs in Sarasota, FL & San Diego & had REALLY wanted to do them but in the States, they're often around $100 - out of my budget so when Chappell & her daughter Tammy gave us the opportunity to take a sample spin on the Segway I JUMPED on it in a heartbeat!!
I was AWESOME FUN for EVERYONE (over 8) on these eco-friendly electric scooters!!! & EASY!!! I was concerned since, as many of you know, I'm not to stable just walking - but it was a BREEZE!!!!
Sebastian was our Guide EXTRAORDINAIRE!! He spoke good English & was FUN!!!
It's the BEST (& laziest) way to see Sabana Park - Costa Rica's version of Central or Golden Gate Park that's had LOTS of improvements like a new Roller Skating Rink & the new Power Aide Jogging Trails plus all the other FUN in the park like Kite Flying, horseback riding, the mini-Zip Line/Canopy Tour (GREAT for someone unsure if they can handle it!!), the lake, LOTS of sports being played & picnicing & various other things happening (LOTS of concerts/events). In Feb. the Museo de Arte Costarricense should be re-opening!!
This is a TOTAL MUST CHECK OUT this TOTALLY FUN activity!! Get a group of friends/family together to do a Day in the Park!! (they have a picnic table right in front).
SPECIAL PRICING FOR PEOPLE LIVING IN CR (bring proof you live here like your Cedula or your passport showing you living here full time):
15 min. for 4,000-colones &
30 min. for 7,000-c
(ALL Discounted rates are CASH ONLY) (sorry for the last minute of this but we JUST threw this together!)
NON-LOCALS RATES (currently - subject to change): $69-April-Nov. for an hour
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
WHERE CAN WE FIND SEGWAY:
In Sabana Park - near the NORTH / EAST corner - behind the Museo de Arte Costarricense (formerly the air terminal) - look for the BIG statue of Leon Cortez - across the street from Banco Nacional. They're located behind those. Look for their Cream colored TENT & the FABULOUS Chappell and/or her daughter!!!
