Yesterday I had a rather rude awakening about just how NOT good my Spanish is. We had hired the Laundry Guy to do a couple of loads and I mistakenly thought it was $4 per load ... NO, $4 per ITEM! Really? Even for panties? So, instead of paying $8 or $9 dollars ... it was $80! ... AND, he cut me a deal, or it would have been $160! Live and learn!
So, first thing this morning went to Craigslist Costa Rica and found a gringo in Sarchí selling an automatic washer for $165. Guess where WE are headed this morning?!? Apparently, his housekeeper prefers the semi-automatic, so it isn't being used. Yet another adventure coming up!
Pura Vida,
Kathleen
