Post subject:  Best Phrase spanish language book for CR

I have read somewhere on CRT that there is an ideal language book for CR. I can't seem to find that book on the search function. Anyone have any pointers as the best book to get, to learn good/key phrases in espanol. I am doing Rosetta stone but learning how to say "the lady has a blue hat" does not seem to help that much--still learning though.

Thanks

I always carry Lonely Planet's pocket-size Costa Rica spanish phrasebook+dictionary with me on my trips. One of those Franklin electronic dictionary-translators goes great with it.

Also highly recommended is Brother Christopher Howard's Guide to Costa Rican Spanish, available from Amazon.com for about $9 inc. S/H. You'll love the section on bombas.
