... too. He returned to his family also. I don&#8217;t know if they actually went back to their parents or if they went to live with other relatives. I was disappointed to learn that they had left as I had not known they were going to leave and I did not get to say &#8220;Good-bye&#8221; to them.<br> Today, Natalia, the only girl in the orphanage, told me that she and her brothers had been scheduled to ...

... My friend stated that he was experiencing nasal congestion on the form, as soon as the nurse read this, she acted with great concern, and asked the doctor for a second opinion. So, the doctor questioned him if he had a fever, to which he answered that he didn't, so then the doctor signed a clearance for him. All this happened in a matter of ten minutes. <br><br>As you clear customs, and make your way out of the last airport doors, you are ...

... br>We didn't find so many cars in guatemala city, maybe because may 1st is a national holiday. So it took about 45 minutes to get to antigua. Any regular day we were told that it takes almost 2 hours to do the same route. The roads in guatemala city are better than i expected them to be. Very clear signals and the traffic seemed to go fluently. The driver took a highway and we got to see a couple of volcanos. A great welcome indeed! After a while, we made a ...

... us before we checked in, in LA that morning, "oh sorry we should have " they said "but your still not going with out a return ticket" Thank you American Air lines.

... from her patio kitchen. And to think we left behind ice and snow and were sitting in warm weather. We missed all our family and friends we left behind to cope with winter. Geni and Dave were our hosts "with the most". So nice to have a ride from the airport when we didn't know anything about the city. It was great as they helped us ...

... active smoking volcano. The guide book says don't bother after 10am in the morning due to clouds but with a little patience the lagoon shows itself. Returning in the afternoon I decided I was well enough for the 4am start the next day to reach Ostional a turtle refuge on the pacific coast where thousands of them are expected to be laying eggs in the next couple of days. Another 8pm curfew for me! Photos to come when internet uploading is free....

... was quick and uneventful, and I landed by mid morning to venture out and find a place to stay. What an adventure. Advice....NEVER rent a car in Costa Rica. Never. There are no street signs anywhere in the country, let alone the Capital city. Trying to navigate with a street map was near impossible. I would walk into store fronts and ask folks what street I was on and the employees didn't even know the name of the street. THAT freaked me out. The cops ...

... some big cats and lots of other critters. We walked around the zoo for about two hours. Not wanting to go back to the hotel we decided to be a little adventurous and took the public bus into Alajuela where we walked around for a while. We wanted to eat at Jalapenos Comida Tex Mex which is owned by Norman from Vida Tropical. I had tried to make a reservation to ...

... some high elevation which took us through a "cloud forest" of steep cliffs, trickling waterfalls, and misty clouds. But down here at the preserve it is much hotter and more humid.

Before dinner we met up for a slide show and ...
