Re: If by "real" you mean...

Taking a refurbished Blue Bird school bus painted green and yellow on a dirt road while reading a book standing up in the aisle, then this is real! ;p missed the direct to Nosara this morning by ten min, so took a bus to Nicoya instead. Had pitiful conversation with Malbin, who typed on my comp when I couldn't understand him (this was often). His wife is a systems engineer and I told him about the beaches of Los Angeles. Hopped off at Nicoya, got directions to the terminal from two policia, and tried on a dress while waiting for the Nosara bus. I told the saleslady it was too big; she pointed to my chest and gestured while nodding sympathetically. Scenery can't be beat; canyons and fields and lushly forested hillsides interspersed w pastel roadside homes and stores and shacks only marginally more well appointed than Vietnam's countryside dwellings.
