There are 15 days before I leave for Costa Rica and I have been in overdrive with preparations for the trip. I've been reading my Lonely Planet guide for potential weekend excursions. Took a trip to MEC to buy myself some water purification drops and trail shoes. I also got a nifty little hidden wallet which hangs around your neck under your clothes so you can keep your valuables safe from pickpockets. This will probably come in most handy around the "Coca Cola", which is San Jose's sketchy bus terminal near a now defunct Coca Cola plant. I also bought a gift for my host family at a Vancouver tourist shop. I didn't want to get anything too tacky so I got them a little black box with Native designs on it. I hope they like it.
I've also got to give a Big Thanks to my family, who have been really supportive of my trip. My parents bought my plane tickets using their airmiles. My relatives have been very generous with donations to the orphanage and to help me pay for the trip. Thanks to you guys and everyone else who has donated or wished me good luck!
