The Eagles Have Landed and...

..it is beautiful!! After an eventful journey - a delayed departure from Heathrow with BA to Miami, leaving little time left to catch/find our connecting flight with American Airlines amidst a schedule of 100's of AA flights and following the blue dots around Miami international (I don't advise it!) and then finally to land on this beautiful shore (20 hours after departing romford) with a stiff neck from airoplane napping, was a joy! However to find that only ONE of our suitcases came around on the carousel! So the one with all our toiletries, Rene's entire wardrobe and random other essential items (Swiss Army knife!) has gone to LA or somewhere else instead.

The Tacacori eco Lodge, our first two night sleepover, welcomed us last night at 10pm (uk 5am). It is a stunning haven with wonderful owners who are French. But today we have awoken to a condundrum of...which of my clothes will fit Rene. So far only my socks have done so, my t-shirts and shorts will only leave him breathless and looking a little camp and I don't think he will take too well to advances from effeminate Tico's. We are optimistic that it will show up later today though otherwise a shopping trip in down town San Jose is imminent. The rest of the day's itinerary may include a walk to the next village, some jetlag naps and no doubt some reflection on the huge leap that we have made!
