I had no idea it was there until years later when i saw it on either this or some other website. even though i have never experienced such intense humidity and sunlight it was an awesome place. That beach at punta mona will be in my fondest memories for a life time. Black sand, deserted, palm trees and an island right off the coast that one might fantasize there is pirated treasure buried on.

Always keep this in mind! “And the fundamental answer is, that there is a fundamental law about the creation of complexity, which is visible and obvious to everyone – yet this law is, to all intents and purposes, ignored in 99 % of the daily fabrication process of society. The law states simply as this: ALL the well-ordered complex systems we know in the world, all those anyway that we review as highly successful, are GENERATED structures, not fabricated structures.” From “The Process of Creating Life” by Christopher Alexander, page 180.
