Today is January 18th, and we leave for Costa Rica on the 28th. We are getting very excited. After planning this trip for months, it seems as though these last few days are running by very quickly!
Bob's health issue is on "wait-and-see" status and he has gotten a green light from his doctors to take this nine-week trip to Costa Rica. We both still have vestiges of the flu - mostly coughing and some congestion - but we are feeling better each day, and are raring to go.
Today, we meet with our friends Janet and Richard, who are planning to visit us in Playas del Coco for about a week in February. They have never been to Costa Rica either, so it will be an adventure for all of us.
I have been reading the eBook series, Happier Than A Billionaire and Happier Than A Billionaire, The Sequel by Nadine Hay Pisani. This is the story of an American couple, both chiropractors, who, in midlife, decided to move to Costa Rica. I am at the point in their story when they have been there a year, renting a home in Grecia, have finally established residency, and are moving to the Pacific coast, near Flamingo, to build a house.
Now, Bob and I have no intentions of moving to Costa Rica, but since we will be living there for a little more than two months, we enjoy hearing stories about Americans who are experiencing this country more as residents than tourists. And we have heard (read) some humdingers! - experiences on both sides of the coin, some breathtakingly wonderful and a few quite daunting and scary. I wonder how our stories will turn out?
