... prepare Costa Rican food in my house in an authentic way. In the markets I sampled new fruits that I had never heard of or seen before.<br><br>While it&#8217;s not usually &#8220;my thing,&#8221; I went with Leila (the adorable sen&#771;ora in my house) to play Bingo&#8230;a popular activity among her group of friends. I didn&#8217;t realize when I said &#8220;ok, I&#8217;ll go with you&#8221; that that meant an 8 hour ...

... freshman classes. And freshman are very friendly because they want to make friends by 2nd and 3rd year, everyone is more set in their friendships. But in general, the students have been very patient with my spanish. In two of my classes the professors are always pushing gringos to speak in the class. And the word they use for us in spanish translates to "north americans," which is interesting because they have a word in Spanish for people from the US, it is ...

... as you can see on one of the photos) and for me this was a far dryer, cheaper and better option than the aforementioned. We stopped off for dinner at Jose and Marie's favourite restaurant in the close vicinity of the park. It was a beautiful restaurant set in stunning gardens and great views. The food was plentiful and very received - especially in light of a slightly dodgy tum first thing in the morning.

... covered. The pictures detail everything. The only bad part...it is incredibly popular and all the bus tourists arrive in masses around 8-9am (mostly annoying USA students who think shouting is the normal voice tone and keep using the word 'like' as if there was no other vocabulary around...) After a few hours trekking around, off we parted to get to another amazing volcano....Volcan Arenal...an even more active one.

... this opportunity to upload some short video clips from my trip. I realize the Hammerhead clip is not great, but the visibility where the sharks were was very poor as a result of strong currents and sandy bottoms. That particular clip gets betters towards the end. Actually, having just uploaded the clips, I realized that the resolution is pretty ******. Oh well, I have a lot of clips to show when I get home. In staying in Heredia, where I was ...

... the necessity. Before we got into the heavy conversation though, Jimmy posed with his famous Bimbo bread products, seen here. It will be a tough week of studying as I get into this higher level of Spanish. They are forcing me to count all the way up to 10 and it is killing me. Until then, hhhhhasta luego.

Yesterday, I went on a tour of the Cafe Britt, www.cafebritt.com coffee tour and it was pretty good. There were about 25 people in our group representing about 7 different countries; USA, Costa Rica, Canada, Argentina, Finland, Malaysia, and Italy. The tour guides walk you out into an area of the coffee field that is quite beautiful with banana trees intermingled to provide shade ...

... to a year studying Spanish at his University. He said he's getting six credits out of it. Not bad. Anyway, it's a really nice group of people. This school offers lots of quality activites and we are always kept busy (if we want to be.) I think I'm going to have a quiet one tonight. Tomorrow I'm off to Sarchi, a village famed for its wooden handicrafts. Should be a good trip. Pura vida.

... immediately nervous and tried to play dumb. He has something under his shirt and I pull it up while still holding on to him. It was just his hat. I think he was trying to change his appearance so I would not recognize him. At this point I really do not know what to do because I have never chased a criminal before let alone caught one. I`m still holding on to him when I see Jessie half a block behind me and a lady from a little shop yelling " Amiga, Amiga" holding up ...
