iHola!

I´ve arrived with only minimal jetlag, despite accidentally getting up & ready at 5:15 this morning instead of 6:15.

I am officially rubbish at Spanish & am in a beginners class with 5 others which is good.

I haven´t got much more to add yet really. I only arrived at the house I´m staying in at 23:30 last night after a long days travelling.

Also - you´ll be glad to hear that I managed to avoid eating MacDonalds this lunchtime & investigated a Costa Rican fast food place in a mall with an Irish girl I met. Jonathon - this description is for you - pork chop, rice, beans, carrots, green beans, some kind of swede-like vegetable & fried plantain - yum.

My breakfast was fesh fruits, cereal, scrambled egg, some kind of spicy sausage & a cheese empanada - also yum.

I think I´d had my daily 5 fruit & veg by lunchtime.

My host family provide dinner for me every evening so I´m interested to see what that brings.

Hasta manana,

Anne-Marie
