Hello one and all. We were out of touch and private internet connection for October since we enrolled in a three week travelling Spanish school "Spanish by the River", based in Turrialba, CR . We spent one week in Turrialba, then one week in Bocas del Toro on Panama Caribbean coast, then our last week in Boquete, in western highlands of Panama. Our main teacher, Eli Rodrigues, was our "chaperone" during the whole trip, travelling on local buses with us, and navigating the labyrinth of customs and immigration crossing into Panama. We had a home stay in Turrialba, a school apartment in Bocas and a partial home stay in Boquete. The home stays are good once to get a feel for local family living, but we preferred to be in our own space, to cook healthier food and have more time for focusing on Spanish.
Some separate posts to follow about the Panama and the frontier crossings.
We are now settled for a time in a rented house in Grecia, CR. It has (somewhat intermittent) internet, and we are gradually getting caught up on emails and blog posting.
