Hey everyone,
Levi and I made it to Playa Copal, CR two days ago. We went out on the 9.5m for about 1.5 hrs yesterday, and go some fun beach time in swimming and rough housing as soon as we pulled into town. getting things lined up for school, but he can't start until Feb as the school year is almost over. We have some fill in services though, that will continue the whole time we're here.
I have lots to do, so will post up some stories and pics later.

Sorry if I missed earlier posts but are you relocating there? Curious because my wife's family is Costa Rican and we've thought about retiring there, but maybe we should go earlier. Look forward to more details of your adventure.

What a crazy trip - what where the boarder crossings like - afer the madness in Culiacan was everything smooth sailing?

I wish I could say it went smooth. Guatemala and Honduras really suck for corruption. I'm out quite a bit of $. My rear end on the Yota' needs some welding from the adventure in Culiacan. I'll post up some excerpts from my journal later. Dave made it hear today, and other than no attempted robberies, there trip did not go any better. If you ever visit Honduras keep to the north. Most cops belong in prison.
I would like to set up here semi-permanent. I will stay south until at least April. I will be looking into it. I already have the ball rolling on some permanent work. I want to get a sailboat and keep with the exploring that way. My life dream has been to head off around the world starting with all of North and South America. (excluding the cold parts)
I took Levi Spearfishing on my back for about an hour and a half today. It's been pretty windy so the vis is down. Came home empty handed. Lots of fish, but I was hunting Chancho (trigger fish).plenty of Lisa and sierra around. bag some tomorrow if no Chancho. Seen only one little guy today. Ceviche!
Oh, Matt. When you heading to Maui to get hitched? Come visit.
