We're here!

We're in Costa Rica! Hooray! It was a long day of flying and sitting in the airport yesterday, but we got here eventually and they let us through immigration and customs without hassle. The bus and taxi strikes had calmed down enough that we could get home in a car (Quena's tía picked us up, and her friend Alexis joined us for the ride). The family and all the other guests are lovely and nice, and Quena's room is cozy and Quena-ish. We're trying to plan adventures for the next few days, hopefully going to Tortuguero this weekend. It's a long trip, since you can only get there by boat, but it should be worth it. That's part of the fun, anyway. It's wonderful to see Quena again, and nifty to be in Costa Rica. It hasn't rained yet, but I'm sure we'll get plenty of that soon enough. We'll probably make it back to the internet cafe at some point to post more about our adventures, and possibly some pictures, but that's all for now. ¡Adios!
