Central Costa Rica    the Central Valley with its collection of cities (centered on San Jose) can be seen in the center of this unusually cloud free, northwest-looking view. This view shows the distinction between the volcanic and foresighted highland spine and the lowlands on either side. The west coast lies in the lee of the mountain spine and is relatively dry. Coast Rica's Caribbean port, Limon, appears bottom right. (STS034-71-0BJ)
