Returning from Canada was quite eventful. First of all my plane was delayed because someone was trying to bring their Newfoundland dog on the plane. Finally we taxied off, but because it was a very foggy morning we were told to take off from another runway and we had to return to refuel. We finally took off 1:15 minutes late and I originally only had 1:30 to make the connection in Atlanta. Luckily I didn't have to go through customs in the US so I ran to my gate where there was only one other lost person also looking for a plane to Costa Rica. We asked around and learned that they had changed the gate and we had to run across the entire terminal but we made it.

Back in Costa Rica it was a shock at how hot it was, but I quickly readjusted to the heat. This weekend I spent in Bagaces or in Liberia. We have a new neighbor, an older woman from the States who is looking for a piece of land in Costa Rica near a national park. She has a really big, strong and (luckily) friendly pit bull, so our little puppy pit bull has someone to play with. She also has a Siamese cat with two kittens. She mentioned that she once had the first place Siamese in the States.

I have also played a lot of soccer since I got back. Usually there is one game every two or three weeks but we have played 3 games since we got back, in addition to playing every break during work. We are playing the games indoors but we still use the uniforms and everything.

Glad you got back ok. It was great seeing you, even though it was only a short time. Have fun playing with those pitbulls.
