My Return to Costa Rica

Greetings, to all
It has been Almost over a year since i last posted. It is with great pleasure that I tell you all that i have return to San Jose Costa Rica, to finish where I left off at during Spring Break 2012. Where should i start?

The Flight: Because i flew hear last year & arrived at night, i decided to find a flight that would get me hear in the morning. i was originally set to fly American Airlines but chose to Fly Delta. My flight left Hartsfield Jackson Airport in Atlanta at 9:45(almost missed due to gate change) and i arrived in San Jose at 12:20 Pm 1:20 p.m. EST.

Transportation: I decided to catch the AutoBus(Transit Bus) because last year i spent 1.10 to go to the Airport when i was departing. When i arrived last year i spent 31 USD and should had only paid 25 USD, So this year i got smart and paid ₡535 from the Airport. The funniest thing happened to me, i caught the wrong bus and ended up in Alajuela, Costa Rica; I was so frustrated about the mishap, then this Cuban guy name Marco got me back to San Jose. In the end i paid another ₡535 and met a girl and Her mom on the way.

The Hotel: I decided to stay in the exact same hotel once more because i really enjoyed it last time. the whole concept of budget traveling is to save as much as possible so that you can blow as much as you want to with no problem. I paid ₡77,347.85for my room at Hotel Europa. A plethora of people complains about this hotel but it seems awesome to me its quiet in my room also, so i have no complaints. I mean the hotel has a nightclub + a Casino what more could you ask for?

Conclusion: My first day back in San Jose, Costa Rica was Perfecto, i have no complaints and im really enjoying myself. I will have more post to come so come back soon 02/28/13

Restaurantes Americano

My Stay here in San Jose, Costa Rica Has Been Excellent. What I have noticed is that there are a abundance of American restaurants, Such as KFC, Wendy’s, Pizza Hut, Quiznos, Subway, and the Biggest McDonald With at least 6 in the area of my Hotel. McDonalds Features a Triple Bacon Cheese Burger instead of the double we all have come to love. There are so many franchises down here and it seems like they give better prices and more food than the one's back home. i will also add a couple More photos on the next couple of blos of this post, so until next time everyone, Hasta Luego!!!!!!

I Got Addicted to Winning

Hello Everyone, day 2 in San Jose, and I’m Really enjoying myself, I think the fact that I’m here alone is > at first I was scared but San Jose actually lives up to its reputation as the happiest place on earth. There are tons of homeless people and they are more aggressive than any of the ones back home in Atlanta. By aggressive I mean they will literally chase behind you begging for colons to eat or buy drugs. Yesterday morning I ran into a dude, who reminded me of a Character on Assassins Creed, lol, as strange and funny, as this may seem it’s the Truth. Life is totally different down here and I just knew I would have culture shock, but some how I fit right in with the crowd. Last Night after I got off the phone with my girlfriend; I decided to go to the Hotel Casino. I’ve spent a total of 13,000 colon’s and I steal have more things to do, I started off very slow winning and winning but then I ended up losing. I Won a Total of 150 USD but only saw 26 USD afterwards. Last night was my first time in any Casino and boy am I addicted. Well that’s All for Now Will Post More Blogs Later on HASTA LUEGO

Christina Aguilera - At Last [Etta James Funeral]

Christina Aguilera sings Etta James' signature song "At Last" Saturday at the funeral in Gardena, California.

Gardena, California (CNN) -- About 300 mourners remembered legendary singer Etta James on Saturday as an authentic voice whose velvety vocals bridged genres from blues to rock.

Another legendary singer, Stevie Wonder, gave a musical tribute to James at her funeral: He played the electronic keyboard and sang his "Shelter in the Rain." He then performed on the harmonica and sang The Lord's Prayer.

Also performing at the service was Christina Aguilera, who sang James' signature song "At Last" and ended her rendition to a standing audience with a farewell directed at James' casket: "May you rest in peace."

After the service, Aguilera told CNN that James was her idol.

"It was so emotional," Aguilera said. "I went through the lyrics last night, and I did rehearsal ... and it took on a whole new meaning having been invited by her close friends and family to sing that classic song at her service. And I started crying every time I started to sing it, and I thought, 'My gosh, what if that happens tomorrow? I just want to do justice to Etta James. She meant the whole world to me, and it was a huge honor to be here today."
