Here in the Philippines, when you get hospitalized, everyone you know will know and will visit. Also, it's actually expected that you'll have someone with you in your room to take care of you and keep you company. All hospital rooms — even wards — have a cot, aside from the patient's bed.Hildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572824685124656116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999552601430694736.post-76220192284645371822008-07-27T12:35:00.000+08:002008-07-27T12:35:00.000+08:00Very interesting, Hilda!Very interesting, Hilda!Louis la Vachehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09039777863022193315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999552601430694736.post-50361858003685033592008-07-26T10:11:00.000+08:002008-07-26T10:11:00.000+08:00A garden oasis in a hospital that contains a Panca...A garden oasis in a hospital that contains a Pancake House and and Starbucks? I guess that helps heal the spirit, but you would not regard either as healthy, hospital food. <BR/><BR/>We do not have any bronze statues or Starbucks in Tamarindo, Costa Rica. We have plenty of places that serve fresh, local Costa Rican coffee, so Starbucks coming to town would be what our British friends would call carrying coal to Newcastle.Dave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999552601430694736.post-54944106323398585482008-07-26T04:45:00.000+08:002008-07-26T04:45:00.000+08:00The oasis is indeed a beautiful place.
