Taking the advice of her friend Mel Gibson (the two used to live in the same Malibu community), Britney and her Dad are joining him and his wife for a little down-time on his new $24 million ranch in Costa Rica. As reported earlier, Gibson — facing his own issues — sold off properties in Malibu and Connecticut earlier last year to purchase the 403-acre property. It’s as pretty much close to a natural paradise as one can find these days with minimal tourism and wooded, mountainous landscape bordered by beautiful beaches.
