First Trip to Price Smart

Overslept this morning, so didn't make the 7 a.m. bus to Grecia ... there is, apparently, NO 8:00 bus, so caught the 9.  From there to Alajuela.  Took nearly 2 hours, but we got there, caught a cab and hit Price Smart.  Julio picked us up and we went to look at a Rover (for which they were asking way too much), then bought toys for the boys on the hill, then looked at a Toyota Corolla Wagon (for which they were asking way too much) and then to Grecia.  Having a late lunch then stopping to buy a phone!  Our new telephone number 011-506-2444-5467.  Sounds like we can get internet going possibly as early as tomorrow, too!  Things are moving along.  I am actually using my phone in the restaurant as a mobile hotspot to post these two~

Apparently, there are probs with the items we mailed ourselves before leaving.  There are used clothing items in them and, not sure exactly yet, but it sounds like they must be fumigated ... Gee, is CR worried about Oregon Coast cockroaches?  Really?  Looks like two small boxes of misc. "stuff" is costing us around $80 ... so, please don't send care packages!

Food on the way out, Julio nice enough to stop here so we could eat and I could post.  More later.

Ciao!

Kathleen
