Pura Vida!!

Pura Vida...which translates to pure life is a common saying in Costa Rica. We were told it could be used to say hi, goodbye, or anything in between. Our guide simply said to use it like Hakuna Matata.

So I'm sure you've gathered by now but we made it to Costa Rica after a long day of travel. We started our journey early this morning and got to O'Hare around 6:30am. A quick flight to Atlanta and a long layover later, we boarded and were on our way to San Jose, Costa Rica. We touched down around 7:30pm (local time, 1 hour behind CST) and were shuttled to the hotel for a great meal and details for the trip.

We are both tired from the travel but ready to start exploring tomorrow. We have free WiFi in the hotel so we will try to post lots of pictures.

Pura Vida!
