Greetings from Juan SantamarĂa International Airport, where unlike any US airport that I've visited, there's a free wifi hotspot. What was my final purchase in Costa Rica? I broke down, & bought Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal. Once I get through the books in English, I'll turn to Spanish.
It's not a big surprise that many passengers here are reading the brand-new book (the airport stores are still fully stocked), but I was amused-cum-scared to see two employees dressed up as Harry and (a dark-haired tica version of) Hermione. Pictures, of course, are forthcoming.
I'll post a trip wrap up at some point soon, plus I'll continue posting pictures, as I sort and process them. I'm thinking of posting a picture a day for some time - I could go for a couple years with what I've taken, but I'll aim for a selective sample of scenic, funny, political, or otherwise intriguing shots.
Alright, we board in about twenty minutes - I'm looking forward (ok, not so much) to spending the flight grading essays, journal entries, and final exams... three of my students are still finishing the journals, which are due before we land in Atlanta. This adventure is pretty much over, but the memories will last a lifetime.
