Back to No Electricity

There is talk that the national elecricity union is sabotaging the rolling black out schedule now. Supposedly, their goal is to force people into voting against a regional trade agreement with the US. Good luck with that. Gotta go.

Most tourist areas are not very affected by this for several reasons; I.C.E. has limited itself to shutting off power in more residential and metropolitan areas, the tourist spots are pretty much left alone. Many tourist oriented companies have generators to keep the electricity running. The blackout is strictly a temporary situation that should be resolved shortly, rainy season starts in May and extends into November or December, meaning it should begin to rain in the next few days, thus the reservoirs can return to full functioning capacity. If you are planning a trip in the next while to Costa Rica there is no need to cancel it, just contact an agent at VacationCity.com and they can assist you in choosing an appropriate area, more importantly one that is not affected by the power outages.

Many think that the blackouts have to do with the denial of a rate increase to the ICE, but no one can prove that theory. But as of today, supposedly there will be no more blackouts or electricity rationing. So now you can travel and live worry free. Hurrah for rain!
