Hola todos,
Happy new year! These holidays have been completely different but completely wonderful as well. In case you didnt know my family came down and spent christmas with me here in CR. We spent half their time at the beach and I can officially say I have spent Christmas day playing in the ocean and watching an incredible sunset. We had a great time at the beach and then came back and explored San Jose a couple of days. Then yesterday night I celebrated New Years with my Tico family. We grilled a variety of meat...and then ate it. Quite yummy. Then with 5 minutes to spare we went outside (in shorts and a t'shirt I should add...something that would never happen on newyears in Chicago) and counted down the new years. our house is on the corner of two streets so we stood in the middle and watched fireworks being shot off from every direction. It was great, kids ran through the streets blowing whistles, noisy fireworks shot off about 100 meters away from us, and everyone who passed shouted feliz año. And to make things even better...I slept in till 11am today. Loved it.
So 2010 is gone. Goodness how time flys.
