Oscar Marenco and Melina D'alolio, members of the Playa Grande Development Association, speak about the future of Las Baulas National Park at Playa Grande, Costa Rica. Marenco and D'alolio said they hope for a positive solution to protect the park, which was established in 1995 to preserve the nesting grounds of the endangered Leatherback sea turtle, but Costa Rica's government does not have the us$500 million dollars necessary to pay for the expropriation of the 691 acres of private property within the park boundaries, according to Costa Rica's environmental authorities.

Rocking Time
Often when planning a trip,
you can do a little too much
of well – planning. Ruining
your vacation like pulp
ruins a glass of OJ. Its not
juice. Researching where to
stay and what beaches to
visit, you strip your
travels of any spontaneity
and uncertainty.
