Thursday in Central America

Hola amigos y familia...

Nosotros estamos en san jose. Actually in the "mall internacional". We have three hours until our flight to houston, so we're doing a little shopping.

The trip to/from Drakes bay was interesting. We drove out from the lodge in the boat for 30 minutes on calm seas. What a change. We pulled onto the beach at Drakes bay and unloaded the luggage on the sand as usual. Next was a 30 minute ride to the airport on the road and up the riverbed at one point. I use the word airport loosely as the entire terminal was as big as my living room and kitchen - seriously. We had 123 lb of excess baggage at a dollar a pound. We paid instead of dumping stuff. The plane ride to san jose in the small Cessna Caravan was really nice. We flew low along the coast and had beautiful scenery to watch. We saw the island we visited as well as the training center. No turbulence or anything. Very nice.

Now we're just waiting. Some found a subway store and others a burger king. The TCBY looks inviting.

See everyone soon,
Steven
