Saw No Damage

With reference to World Travel Watch, May 5, it appears that the writers had misinformation about earthquake damage in Costa Rica. We arrived four days after the quake, stayed in San Jose and other areas, drove more than 1,750 miles and within 25 miles of Puerto Limon, and saw no visible signs of damage. There was extensive damage on the Caribbean coast, particularly in Puerto Limon, but not in San Jose or the rest of the country.
