Things I Learned in Costa Rica

• Latin Americans love to worship.
• Always bring a Spanish phrase book if you want to be understood.
• The sun is a gift from God.
• Heredia is like Tagaytay.
• When running in the rain you think you see a light blue floormat, don't step on it. It's actually a pool overflowing with water.
• Take Dramamine 30 minutes before riding a plane, if you didn't learn the first time.
• The trampoline is a gift from God (through a human being that invented it).
• Do not panic when the cab driver charges you 2000 colones. He's actually charging you 4 dollars, not 2000 dollars.
• Just because there are a lot of common words between Tagalog and Spanish does not mean you know Spanish.
