"Off To See The Lizard"
Last night Jen Z and I went to the library to do some official trip preparation research. Here's our tenative plan...
11 January-Arrive in Cancun, Mexico. Hang around there for a day and begin making our way south. Make stops in Chichén Itzá and cruise around the Yucatán Penisula. Head towards Guatemala. Visit Tikal and Flores. Eventually arrive in Antigua (around the 25th?) and sign ourselves up for some spanish classes. Study spanish, take some salsa dancing classes, do some volunteer work, visit the markets and explore!
23 February-Head out of Antigua and work out way over to Utila (Bay Islands, Honduras). Do some serious diving! Perhaps stick around there for 6 weeks and become Dive Masters.
06 April-Leave Utila and head towards Belize. Dive for a week or so and then head out before we spend too much $$...travel south through Guatemala, Honduras, Nicuragua, and eventually get to Costa Rica.
May-Try to get a job and apartment in Costa Rica. Do some volunteering. Sharpen our newly learned spanish skills. Take some surfing classes, do some river rafting, hike through rainforests and sit in hot springs near volcanoes. Walk along the shores of the white and black sandy beaches. Drink Pina Coladas. Save the turtles. Sleep in a hammock. Eat a lot of rice and beans. Make a week trip to Panama. When we run out of money...head back to the states!
Now can you see why quitting my job and moving away won't be so bad afterall?
I know you want to come with me.....
T-Minus 93 days and counting....
After the library, I headed to Travis' with my roomies. All 5 of my roomies were there. Here's a picture of all of us...let's see if I can figure this out....
(oh and for the record, this picture was NOT last night....this was last week. Sommer bought us all pizza for helping her with her "fundraiser" to save the garage...I LOVE YOU SOMMER even if you don't know how to set the emergency brake)
