First Day!
COSTA RICA MAE!!!
So I arrived at around 4:30pm on August 8th. The airport has only 3 gates but really big gift shops and stuff for all the tourism. On the airplane I met a wonderful elderly couple from San Rafael de las montanas, but they're American. I talked to them all 3 and half hours of the flight. We talked about WWII, U.S.A., the world, and the Baha'i Faith. They got my contact info and I got theirs and they invited me to be with them. so nice! I met a group of guys from India who are here in Costa Rica for 16 days to vacation. I was attracted to them through their singing in the airplane. I hung out with them the whole time out of the airplane through customs and out. They were great!
The airplane lost one of my bags, but hopefully this morning it'll arrive. It's all good. Jere McKinney picked me up and showed me around and took me to their house, met his wonderful wife, Julie, and then I met David, Gianni and their daughter Ella. Beautiful people!
I feel very much at home (Colombia) here ever since landing the airplane in costa rica and everybody started clapping! it's a custom among Latin Americans to clap when you land an airplane. I would do that in other airplanes in U.S. but I would be the only one. haha..."awkward." I love being in this home in the city, surrounded by nature, open windows and doors and no AC. This morning I woke up at 5:30, my body's circadian rhythms immediately got accustomed to this time set here in Costa Rica. Today I'll visit with some Bahai's and enjoy their company.
stay tuned for more!
MUCH LOVE!!
