So, my class schedule for the next 5 weeks is Composition class that is Monday thru Friday @8-10 a.m., my Poetry in Latin America Monday thru Thursday @2:30-5 and Latin American dance class (we learn to dance the marengue, salsa, cumbia, and the bachata) Monday and Tuesday @5-7. My first two classes are completely taught in ...

La Ensenada

... and a laguna with all kinds of fantastic looking birds. Suddenly the first 2 horses smell there homes. I am  number 3, scared to go running. My horse feels it. But at last she follows. My daughter loves it. This is it! Annemieke says: "i'm sorry, can't stop her,but this is amazing!!". We loose our hat and our sunglasses. But we had a fantastic time.This is close to ultimate happiness. It is time to start drinking some wine. My travel company is all over sixty but god they know how to drink!

We arrive in Montezuma

... re not very reliable. The ATM here in Montezuma is out of service; let's see how long it remains out of service. So, if you want to do any banking it's a 15 minute drive up to Cobano or longer to Mal Pais. Secondly, the exchange rate for Dollars to Colones at the restaurants, etc. is horrible. We used Oanda, a currency site to purchase our Colones before we left. The fee was ...

Jeg er her stadig :)

... som var fra "Ligustervej 6" Dvs. Knud, Lisbeth, Morten og Gitte. Det var en cd med Kim Larsens greatest hits, hvor én af sangene på cd'en bringer en masse gode minder frem om Gitte og jeg som børn :) Der var også nogle sjove billeder af os fra dengang, så det var endnu en rigtig sød gave! Tak for det.. Hmm ellers sker der ikke så meget mere her. Dagene går stadigvæk med skole, og strandture og på det sidste er jeg blevet bedre til at læse lidt mere på mit spansk ...

Michael's Cocos Island Diving Experience

... good dive nonetheless particularly with all the mating marble rays to be seen that are like flying dinner plates with tails only they are 1 to 1.5 metros in diameter. After lunch Billy decided once again not to make the third dive - even though it was to 'Silverado'. Silverado is the cleaning station found at the foot of a waterfall on Cocos that runs off into the ocean where Silver tip sharks gather to get a 'wash and brush up' from the resident Barber fish that pick off ...

IM FREAKIN EXHAUSTED

... AND SOME MILLIPEDES THAT HAVE CYANIDE IN THERE GUTS TO HELP THEM DIGEST. BUT THE BEST THING WAS SOMETHING THAT I NEVER KNEW EXISTED AND WAS INCREDIBLY LUCKY TO SEE SINCE IT IS NOCTURNAL-AN OLINGA. ITS VERY SIMILAR TO A KINKAJOU BUT WITHOUT THE PREHENSILE TAIL AND ITS GREY. AND I SAW IT AT 10 IN THE MORNING. STILL HAVENT FOUND ANYMORE DAMN SNAKES THOUGH. SAW SOMETHING ...

Monteverde at last

When we left Nosara, we were hoping to get to Monteverde as quickly as we could, but we weren´t quite sure if we were going to Monteverde or Arenal, and we also thought there might be a chance to see some mass turtle arrivals at a different beach north up the coast. So we took a bus heading to San Jose, and got off in Liberia, the cowboy capital of the Guancaste province. Not much to say about Liberia except that we had some damn good fried chicken there. We took ...

Semana Santa

... On Thursday I hopped on a bus headed towards Tamarindo, well waited for like 3 hours then hopped on a bus. It was Kevin's birthday so I stayed with him and all his friends at there Coastal Spanish Institute. We had a bonfire on the beach and I finally got to surf. I didn't get up exactly put I certainly went under, several times. I actually got pummeled twice. Literally in the water saying "Liz, do not worry you will not die, you will be able to breath soon ...

Costa Rican surfing safari!

... in time to check in to the Blue Pelican and catch the glass off. Although the waves at San Miguel weren´t as good as in Mal Pais (due mostly to a lack of swell) it was nice being one of the only 4 people surfing that day. From there we forged new trails to the north, past a restaurant with the best view ever and arrived in Camoronal (probably one of the best yet most deserted surfing beaches in all of Costa Rica). Unfortunately it doesn´t matter how ...

24th April: Costa Rica

... although I wish now I'd taken a photo first! To the right is one of the few creatures bigger than an ant that could put up with the loud human company. This one is known as the "Jesus Gecko" for its trick of walking (well, skittering) over water. Alas, no water about for it to show us its party trick, although I'm sure if there was, one of our number would have offered it a couple of dollars to do so. This ...
