...a sunburn. Oh, and a job. Not in Costa Rica, but a job waiting for me when I get back to Bellingham. (Sweet!) I´ll be one of two reporters for the Bellingham Business Journal. Ahhh, now I can relax and really enjoy the great hammock I just bought. So, after our friend Jen and Elio got married, me and my Jen flew to the Pacific coast to a town called Sàmara. I´ve never been on a little 12-seater plane before. I wish I could fly that way all the time; it´s way more fun! So now we´re bumming on the beach, cooking our own gallo pinto in the communal kitchen at our hotel, and scoping out the surfing waves. I think my sunburn will have healed enough to spend the day getting dumped off of a surfboard. We´re planning on staying here in Sámara until the weekend and may even spend the rest of the month here! It´s gorgeous!
