Live from Costa Rica

For each trip that I take I am going to create a list. A list of pros and cons for each country. Each destination. In hopes that when deciding on a destination people can have a realistic expectation without being over idealized. For me Costa Rica has many parts. However I think one misconception is that scarlet macaws and jaguars are roaming all over. There are lots of trees. Yet it is not so dense. There are areas within the town that has a plethora of flora and fauna. Mostly flora. Anyway. Food is somewhat inaccessible in areas of isolated resorts. So you become hostage of resort costs. I was rather disappointed in not seeing many frogs. Although I did see the blue jeans frog. I had hoped to see more naturally occurring. The resort lifestyle is something that consists mostly of planning for me at least. Arranging taxis and figuring out the best local spots. The cost of taxis back and forth can be prohibitive. All in all the Costa Rican people take pride in their environment and not so much in national currency. There is much to see and many hours drive in between. I would recommend Costa Rica for the keen hiker, bird watcher and not those looking for night life. Not for those looking for fashion or lots of variety in eateries. I would recommend a healthy budget for taxis or renting a car. Biggest great surprise: hot springs. Biggest Let down: Lack of ease in seeing local wildlife and distance between places. Definitely worth renting a car.

Welcome to the Year 2012 ! I am always looking at airfare costs to go to various places. But my yearly travel goal is never far from my mind. I have been feeling a particular calling to the continent of Africa. I am sure that it is well achievable.In the next 10 years I will be making the most of travel. As my children grow into teenagers.I have come to realize that without planning nothing would be possible, as it has to first be an idea before it can be manifest. I have a very detailed itinerary for the next 20 years indeed. For now in this year I am planning for Costa Rica, california and Trinidad. Each year I want to visit a family island in the Bahamas. So this time will be Exuma. Then maybe Abaco, Bimini, Andros, Cat Island, Eleuthera. Those will be the first ones I visit. We are planning on creating a breakfast in bed. To that end, I will be going to the Bahamas to apply for my citizenship papers. Making contacts is always very very important. So that is my plan thus far. I have become a fan of luxury purchases. Diamonds, beautiful scarves, exotic jewels etc. Now I just need to earnings to catch up with my shopping, charity and travel !

Eastern Seaboard Road Trip

We are 10 days away from our first road trip to Stowe, Vermont.
It is a major milestone for me because I truly believe that I am following my dreams.
I believe that for whatever the reason I need to see the world.
I am happy because I had said that by the end of this year I wanted to take a domestic trip. To the New England area. We will be stopping in D.C, staying over night and then exploring the following morning. Very excited to be experiencing a number of different accommodations.On the way home we are planning on stopping in Boston to see the Nutcracker play. I am excited because for me this represents having faith in my own dreams and trusting that things will play out well. I am excited to see what this next adventure will bring. Of course we are also looking at our spring trip. I am planning for Costa Rica in May and trinidad in february. Perhaps we will do Disney next summer too. Very excited. I have to get Khayri's passport ready. What I am expecting for this trip is taking the kids to see the Nation's capital, the Whitehouse, the Martin Luther King monument and the Washington monument. We will finish things off with Thanksgiving Dinner at Station 4. Then we will head to New York City, view time's square at night. Possibly stay at Cory's house for the night and the following morning we will wake up do a little sight seeing and depart at around 11. Arrive in Stowe, Vermont at 5 pm and begin our Winter Wonderland Vacation. Very Very excited about what the future holds for us.
