Day1

I got into San Jose, Costa Rica last night after a couple of great flights with one connection through Houston, and after waiting around for an hour or so, I realized that my bike and luggage had left me somewhere along the line. After talking to the customer service agent, I realized that my luggage was a little bit nervous to come to Costa Rica, so it decided to stay behing in Houston. The airline is going to be sending my equipment directly to Jaco (the start of the race) today, so that's going to make things a little easier as I won't have to worry about lugging my equipment with me as I make the trip.

I've run into about 10 other Canadian cyclists and surfers in the few hours that I"ve been out and about here at the Best Western Irazu, and all of the local Costa Ricans have been so polite!

I've rented a little 4x4 SUV this morning, and I'm going to head down to Jaco to do some chilling on the beach, with maybe a touch of surfing.

Talk soon.
