Morning, by the Perishers. Keep that in mind, y'all. And remember, only
the GOOD die young
We stood looking around as the crowds, yelling and rushing as is common
in Chicago, throbbed and moved about us. "Well," said I, "We have no
specific instructions, we are an hour and a half early, and what should
we do " We looked around, and I spotted a boy looking more lost than we
did and squinting at a familiar piece of paper. "Guys, I think he's in
our group," I said. "Go ask him," Audrey said. He was. So we decided as
a foursome to check in together and go wait for the rest of the team at
the gate. We did, with a surprisingly short wait and no problems
through security.  I was a little
skeptical of going without waiting for our group, but we had no
instructions other than "meet," so we decided to meet at the gate. I
bought batteries, they bought food, I stole a newspaper, and we settled
down to wait. Hours and hours went by, and we took pictures, did
crosswords, discussed the horrors of the news, and waited. Shortly
before it was time to board and several hours after we were supposed to
meet, our team finally started to trickle in. Audrey, Ruth, James and I
are now all famous for being the smart travelers who checked in right
away, avoided the computer freezes, and worried the rest of our team
half to death. Our leader made it on the plane after the last boarding
groups had been called
It is the last day of May *tear* and here I am in the Best
Western, San Jose, Costa Rica. There is no Microsoft Word, and the
keyboard is extremely funky. But hey, I'm here! It is very quiet around
here... most of my 40+ classmates are bushed after a long day of travel
yesterday, and this morning's venture to the coffee plantation which,
btw, was totally awesome! This morning and last night we ate at
Denny's, which as you know is very Costa Rican 
This afternoon I have to write a report about it, and figure out some very important information so !Hasta la vista!

lol. That sounds so odd.
I wonder how mixing sarcasm with Spanish will go... hmm. Don't have too much fun, and be sure to call me when you get back!!!
Greece was incredible, btw. When you get a chance to go there, take it ... especially if it's to one of the islands. Freakin' awesome. Have an incredible time, and do lots of crazy stuff so you have funny stories to post on your blog when you get back!
