Well, here we are, almost 4 years later, and we are finally back in Costa Rica. I had not even realized that I missed it, but it feels like coming home. Well almost – the San Jose airport has been completely redone, and now looks like most modern airports. No coming down stairs and walking across the tarmac. The guys outside are the same, however, hoping to earn a commission by getting you to the hotel that pays them the most. We were offered “help” many, many times until our ride finally arrived.
For those of you that don’t know, my son Daniel is traveling with us for the first part of our trip. He’s doing the music for Pam’s wedding that we are attending in a few days, and he’s having an adventure on the way. His friend Kaitlyn is also with us, and it’s her first major trip, which actually allows us to see many things through new eyes. For instance, her first flight – I had about a dozen pictures to choose from for this post.

She said she was only a little afraid on the first take-off…
You can clearly see excitement!
The Rio Segundo area near the airport is still pretty unpleasant and not well suited for an evening stroll, but we ignored the steel fences and razor wire, and wandered in the afternoon, bought some fruit, and then finished our first day with a gourmet meal in our small hotel. There was a bug in Kaitlyn & Dan’s room, but it was easily conquered with a shoe.
Daniel gets 1 gold star.
