Arriving in San Jose

22-December 2007 : San Jose, Costa Rica
After a long day of travel, many delays and lots of waiting, we're finally here at the Courtyard Marriott in San Jose. I am dreary eyed and irritable and didn't say a word on the taxi ride over here. Everyone else seemed to be doing okay or at least not showing that they weren't feeling crappy. After a two hour delay on the ground in Miami, it wasn't a fun flight especially since we landed around midnight.

Now the grouchiness is coming out, haha! We just had a bit of a conflict over whether to have the AC on or not. My sister was vouching for the later to save the environment and my dad said "oh, that's just ridiculous!" I think it's going to be a challenge to stay off each other's nerves at times especially tomorrow as we are looking to get up early and lack of sleep will surely bring out the grouchies.

So far, San Jose is very very humid and i could feel that the moment I stepped off the plane. The airport was sticky and so was the cab ride over. Nothing in particular stuck out about San Jose except that the streets didn't have center dividing lines which was a bit odd. Cars just know to stay to the right and mind the other drivers passing by.

I'm in for a short nights sleep so I'd better be off to make the best of it! Hasta luego!

Fun to relive the trip through your eyes and your writing, Gabe. Love the photos, too. Good job!
