Montazuma´s Revenge

I gotta tell you, Montazuma´s got nothin on the Costa Rica dude´s revenge. I ate a burro, actually only two bites on Monday noon. Because it tasted kinda strange, I dumped it and boy, howdy, was I sick Monday night and Tuesday. If I had eaten the whole thing I´d probably be dead. Still attended school but my wagon was draggin. But now am feeling fine. Eliet and I go to Cafe Britt, a coffee plantation tomorrow so I should have lots of pics to download this weekend. It´s been great to finally contact my loved ones and talk to Harold. Thank you Nikki for getting H to stop opening my email to see if it was there! I have fallen in love with a dog here, a street dog. She is old, and sweet and small and her name is Macha. I´ll send pics of the dogs I´m working with later. If it were possible I´d bring her back with me. I´m sure Harold is thanking God I can´t. I´ve heard from many friends, thanks Nikki, Kelli, Cheryl, Emma, Ryan and David. I´m looking forward to talking in Spanish with my friends. Don´t worry, Cheryl, I intend to hold you to it!! I´ve heard from my sisters Bonnie and Kitty and from my favorite cunada, Diana. Ít is so great to hear from you all. And of course Carmen and H have posted. Much love to all. Mimi

Ick! That's too bad you got so sick! *Note to self: don't eat burros!* I'm glad you've recovered and that you befriended a nice street dog. (Surprise, surprise!) Love you lots.

Love,
Nikki

The moral of the story...NEVER eat a burro on Friday te 13th! I thought you knew better! Our company from Wisconsin left yesterday...now just cleaning up. Not to worry -- I'll have YOUR guest room ready by the time you return! Love you, Kitty

This is kinda weird feeling for me--posting on a blog for the whole world to see, or at least more than a couple of people. I'm blog challenged, so I admire Mimi for doing this (with Carmen's help).

I've been following the trip and enjoying the pictures. Love you, Sheree
