Costa Rica October 2008
Bill Good and I spent 10 days in Costa Rica. We got there with $7 Spirit Air tickets (With fees $75 round trip). 20 minutes after we got our rental car, thieves stole our luggage and my computer, in a bank parking lot, with a security guard! But the rest of the trip was great.
