Meeting some of Don Lulo's family members and spending time in their dining area next to their kitchen made me feel right at home. It brought back childhood memories. Memories I thought I had forgotten. Memories of me as a small child in a Caribbean island where I lived most of my life running free through the country, hearing the soothing sound of the wind caressing the high leaves on the trees. And, the birds singing and flying freely while the sounds of pots and pans hitting eachother in the kitchen reminded me that the women were preparing a delicious home cooked meal.
My visit to Don Lulo's grounds was not only memorable but a spiritual awakening. It felt good to feel the love and humble spirits that this family radiates and shares with others. My Blessings to this Beautiful Family.

Don Lulo and his family sheltered me and two strangers during Hurricane Cesar in 1996 (I think that was the year). I will never forget the kindness of that wonderful family and the amazing experience of waiting for the rains to stop, eating momanchinas (lychee fruit) and playing dominos. Ruth made amazing food every day and Don Lulo never stopped smiling. I never imagined I would go for a horseback ride and return 4 days later, but I am so happy this wonderful family was there to keep us safe. I hope to return soon and to see my Costa Rican amigos again.
