Irish surfer set to conquer the waves in Costa Rica
March 16th, 2010 | 
Author: 
Irish surfer Liam Joyce is set to take on the planets best surfers at the up-coming ISA Billabong World Surfing Games. The competition takes place in Costa Rica from 1st until 8th August. Joyce will be part of a four man team that is representing Ireland.
Following the World Games, Joyce will be travelling down the west coast of Europe competing in the ASP World Qualifying Series contests in Spain, Portugal, France and the Canary Islands. Joyce will also represent Ireland at the European Surfing Championship in Jersey from the 26 September until 4 October.
Speaking about the up coming World Games Joyce said, Its great to represent Ireland in the World Championships. Its great too to have support from the guys at Captain Morgan to help me compete on the European leg of the QS tour.”
Ireland has in the last few years stamped its name on the map of international surf destinations with an abundance of natural reefs throughout the coast providing the best possible conditions for Atlantic swells to break. Until recently the surf industry has largely neglected the potential of the Irish market but as the industry looks to more emerging markets for growth, Ireland will play a huge role in the fast progression of European surfing due to the quality of the waves and the unique surf culture that it offers. Surfing is now recognised as the fastest growing sport in Ireland, it only takes a visit to any west coast beach during the summer to realise the potential of this market moving forward.
Liam has cemented his place at the top of the surfing world here in Ireland, winning double second places at the 08 and 09 Irish Surfing Championships and winning the expression session at the Sony Cois Farraige Surfing Festival in Kilkee in 2008.
Liam is from a large Irish family that emigrated to New Zealand from Ballinasloe, Co. Galway but has been living back in Ireland for the last two years. His surfing journey can be followed on www.frankthewanderlust.blogspot.com

San Jose Costa Rica Sabana Park
La Sabana Park or Parque La Sabana is easily located on any map of San Jose. It is located at the western end of Paseo Colon. Back in the day this used to be San Jose’s international airport. This is the perfect place to spend the afternoon and immerse yourself in Tico culture as this is the city’s center for active sports and recreation. Here you’ll find everything from jogging trails, soccer fields, basketball courts and even a few public tennis courts. All the facilities in La Sabana are open to the public.
Parque La Sabana is where Tico families gather for picnics, kite flying, fishing and overall socializing with friends and family, and there’s even an outdoor sculpture garden. This is just a GREAT place to experience local culture and maybe even a good reminder on how the simple pleasures in LIFE are often the BEST… there’s not a PlayStation in site.
Check out our video of La Sabana and if you got an hour or two we would recommend a stroll through the park. We would also recommend you leave this park before dusk and AVOID it all together during the night time hours when the sketchier characters of San Jose come out to play… and they don’t seem interested in a pick-up game of soccer.

How do you tell whether or not you can use a picture from a website? (Copyright info, etc.)?
My science teacher is a finatic about copyright things. I know it is very important and a delicate legal situation, but adds more to my plate. Anyways, I have been looking through Costa Rica maps for projects, but I dont know how to tell which ones I can use?
You can use any image unless it has been explicitly stated on the website. However, you MUST source the picture that you are using to cover your rear-end from legal issues, or to avoid breaching your honor code at your school.
So, if you find a picture from CNN.com for example, you can copy the image and make sure that you copy the URL (website address, the whole address, not just "CNN.com") and place that at the bottom of your document or just under your picture.

how long to drive to costa rica?
i am going to drive from mississippi (meridian area) to costa rica (around san jose). how long will it take? how many miles (or km) is it? google maps isnt working for me right now… 
i think it would be fun to SEE everything from the CAR, not an airplane window. and i can stop and look at things on the way 
i DO realize how difficult some of the roads will be, thank you, and i am NOT doing this alone.
You spend around a week and over 3800 kms.
Good luck

What phone services work in costa rica?
Currently have AT&T LG Shine – will this work, and will I get 3G service for downloading Google maps and such?
Phones that operate on the 3G do very well in Costa Rica these days. There is 75% penetration of cell phone service in the entire geographic area of Costa Rica. In most any place that you will go, that should work fine. ICE is the only true telecom company and they control cell phone service. They operate on the 1900 which will certainly be compatable. Just make sure you call AT&T to make sure you have international in your plan!
Maps of Costa Rica for NUVI?
Where can I get them and can I download them ?
Do I need them I can not seem to find them on the internet readily available?
You won’t find them. My dad tried to and was not able to. We ended up renting a car and they gave us a map at the rental place. Tell the employees where you want to go and they will highlight a route on a map for you. If you are patient and know a little Spanish, you will get along just fine!
Good luck!
