I got here safe, talk about a long bus ride, about 4 days from Mazatlan to San Jose, and those of you who know how easily i get motion sickness--aha, no more!!!!! I´ve miraculously overcome it, not completely, but from before, pretty damn different. Ill be staying here for the next month, got some spanish classes arranged through U. of Costa Rica and i have a really nice host family to stay with. As many of you know, this is my first time through this region, right now its raining and then changing out for the sun to have a chance, pretty humid. Update on the family..Natalie, Nathan and Aiden are in the process of moving to Glenwood Springs, and thats one great reason to go visit along with hitting up the hot springs!!! -Ahsah!!! My parents are doing great, Dad´s enjoying retirement and taking up archive duties with the Knights of Columbus and for his First Cavalry Unit (Army) along with Aiden duty 3 days a week. Mom is great, pulling double duty with Frontier and at the salon, all those here say the same thing, ´que son joven.´ --And they are, looking great at 28. --Me VOY, que se vayan bien!!
I saw your map and your route looks very much like the one I've planned so I decided to check out your post. My trip, however will be further south. Guatemala to Panama by bus. And if I have the energy, back to Guatemala by bus, but I'm reserving the right to fly if it becomes too much for me and my young teen daughter to handle.
Thanks for sharing!
