Greetings from Costa Rica!

So, I have only been here 2 days and already I missed you all so much, I had to say hi.

My trip got off on a sour note which always makes me a little nervous. I'm, by nature a negative person but I self talk a lot so I can turn it around.

Landed in Miami at 445am and didn't take off until 1200pm! Originally, I had a 4 hour layover that turned into 7 hours due to mechanical problems. Sat on the plane for 1.5 hours. We deboarded,*never a good sign*, for 1.5 hours.

My negative Nellie was having a party in my head but thankfully I met some cool guys who were so damn funny, my positive penny was prevailing.

Landed in Costa Rica at 3pm and my driver was there to pick me up. Whew!

My driver, Roberto was awesome. I was his only passenger and he waited 3 hours for me. I was so hungry so we decided to get something to eat. Interesting conversation in broken Spanish and broken English.

Arrived at the hotel 6pm. This is when it dawns to me that I'm not really on a tour. Talk to the hotel tour operator who tells me that I'm on my own just everything booked through the agency.

I'm totally fine with this. It's been an amazing 2 days so far and I will share more later. Computer access is limited and people are waiting.
