Thumbs down

so i'm from Kansas and the furthest away i've been is Port Aransas, TX.

but now..i get to go on my first real trip..to Costa Rica!! I am so so so excited! gonna be going with my mom and sister to meet up with my crazyass grandma and two aunts down there. We'll fly into San Jose and thank God we're only spending the night there..after reading posts here i've found that this city is nothing special!

we're going to drive to Quepos, on the Pacific coast and stay there for a week..and we'll hit up Manuel Antonio, that national park, and probably go check out some other places on the coast.

we're leaving on Feb. 15th..can't wait!! :D

You'll have to keep checking the boards, there are a few people going to Costa Rica in the New Year that could give you some pointers!

Congrats on your first big trip...may it be the beginning of many journeys for you!

Good luck, have a blast, and take a lot of pictures. You'll love them once you come back.

Congrats! You're gonna love it! And yeah, get out of SJ as soon as humanly possible

Looks like you're doing a Pacific Coast trip - hitting up all the places I missed, hehehe. Make sure you say hi to all the monkeys for me. They're adorable.

Congrats! On your first trip! That feeling is the best. When you know that your finally going to get out of the hood that you've known all of your life. Having a passport and seeing other parts of the world is the best educational experience ever. Have fun.

ps. costa rica is amazing!!!!! I went three years ago and plan on going back for sure. Make sure you have an go to a salsa club. The men are hot! They can sure shake their stuff.

I heard dat, Dio ! This will be the beginning of some of the best education you will receive in your life!

No matter what the situation is or what city you are in, make the most of it regardless of what you've read and heard. Seeing the world through your eyes is the important thing.

And that means, that on Feb 16th, 2006, we can say with conviction- "Toto, you're not in Kansas anymore "
