Back in Jaco

I'm back taking twice a day surf lessons with Ricardo at School of the World. I had the shittiest day of surfing I think I've ever had yesterday. I rode Bamboo's 6'2'' which is riciculously skinny and unstable for my first lesson and stood up once in 2 hours. I switched to the boat, 6'8'' for my 2nd lesson and it was like relearning how to surf. Everything had to be readjusted and retimed and everytime I dropped into a right I lost my balance and fell of the back. Grrahhh!! It was soo frustrating! I have another 2 lessons today and 2 tomorrow and then I think I'll go to Quepos agian with the new group (whom i love by the way). I'll be home Monday! Ciao!

Montezuma's Revenge

So after arenal, we took a fun little road trip to Puntarenas and caught the car ferry to Montezuma. We pulled into the town in POURING rain. My mom was angry because she had been driving for 7 hours and we hit a tree pulling out of the driveway. In the morning, we woke up and I had the best plate of French toast (it actually came reccomended from 2 sources) ever. Alas, two hours later, I was sick, moaning in bed. I stayed in all day and night. Then on sunday morning, I had the exact thing happen to me that happened in Nice, France. I was lucky enough to find a shady wall in the park to sit up agianst before I fainted. It's the strangest thing, and it always happens while I'm souvenier shopping. Everything gets really bright, I feel like air is rushing through my head, everything starts to tingle, and my neck gets really sore. I sat down and collapsed in my mom's arms. It sucked because Montezuma is supposed to be one of the chillest places in Costa Rica and I missed it. Well, maybe next time.
