After years of daydreaming, months of planning, and a 6 month delay after I broke my ankle, my trip is finally about to start! Right now it's 4:30 AM and I'm in Logan, still groggy from a 2:30 wakeup (~3 hrs of sleep), waiting for my flight.
What's that, you ask? How am I online then? Excellent question. Seeing as I'm hopelessly addicted to technology, and am having a very hard time contemplating 4 months without my iPhone. let alone being without both my iphone and laptop, I bought a netbook for my travels. I bought the Asus 1000 HE, and I'm loving it so far! (thanks for the recommendation, Drew!) It takes a little bit of time getting used to the 10" screen, but the keyboard's very well designed, it has a 160 gig HD, and I pimped it out with 2 gigs of RAM, so it's a pretty badass piece of equipment. Hopefullly this will make it much easier for me to store my photos, write blog entries while offline, etc. I'm just hoping it won't be stolen!
Anyways, today is basically dedicated to travel. My flight leaves at 5:30 AM, and gets into San Jose, Costa Rica, at 12:30 PM. I'm then going to see how well all those spanish classes in middle school and high school have served me as I try to get to Jaco by bus from San Jose. My destination is School of the World, a surfing / spanish school. Classes start tomorrow. I'll post another update in a few days once I'm settled in Costa Rica.
