Wow its April!

So I've hit the top of the hump. The 2 month marker was passed and now the time is flying! I only have 2 more weeks here in the campo and then I've got a 'field trip' with my advisor/pal to an undetermined destination for a week and then its back to the mad rush and pollution and stress of San Jose for 3 or 4 weeks. Wow how the time flies!
So last week after getting back from San Jose, I got an invite from Andrea to go visit her at the Art Festival in Ciudad Quesada (San Carlos). If any of you have ever seen me at an arts and crafts fair you know that this is a danger zone for me! But I had a great time leaving with an empty wallet and a full backpack. We were also able to go to an awesome salsa concert, but we soon discovered that 11:00 was far past our usual 9-10pm bedtimes in the campo, and had to head back to the house out of pure exhaustion. I'm getting the hang of traveling by myself here, its not so bad, just a little uncomfortable if you end up on a bus speacially made for short people!
Then when I got back on Sunday, after the bi-monthly feria was over I was invited by Isabel to go skating. I jumped on the opportunity since the family doesn't go out to do things like this often, and I didn't regret going! I was able to use Isa's husband Alonzo's roller blades, and around and around we went in a little gym with blasting music, and disco lights. That was when the classic rock came on, and I don't know that I've ever been so disoriented, so off balance and wobbly, and so happy!! Then afterwards we scooted into Grecia and got a pizza and ate outside, the four of us sitting on the curbside.
Later: Beginning Semana Santa
