COSTA RICA 2005

In less than 24 hours I'll be in Costa Rica!!! With big trips like these you never really feel ready I guess.....I hope some of my Spanish drifts back into my brain when I arrive :O\

The Usual Suspects

Claire Parker was many things, but one of her most crucial roles after high school was being the girlfriend of this clean-shaven backstreet boy. So that's how I met this one...and we'll see how he stacks up in the world of world travelling. Sounds like he's well-prepared...but does he really understand just how hard we plan on partying? Yeah, actually he does. And he's bringing a swiss army knive.

Once a slacker, always a slacker...this long time friend from high school knows the legend of the launchpad posse and learned Spanish with me back in the early years. Falling desperately into the world of all things punk and anarchist, this weirdo claims he may be sporting a mohawk on this big trip...we'll see. In any case, he proved himself a champion on last year's New Orleans excursion. Matt, let's make this one bigger.
