Day 34- Out with a Bang

To indicate how great of a night it was, I will provide you with some of the dialogue that you could have heard between the three roomies and their sister tica:


"You think he's creepy too?....Yeah....Should we tell her that?...No, she's picky, so leave it alone."


"Are you girls American?.....Sí, somos de los Estados Unidos....Do you speak English?....Sí hablamos inglés."


"I love a guy with a faux hawk!...Sweety, he has a real mohawk."


Ahhhhh....what a great last night in San José for my roomie :)


But this morning, we were all moving, well a bit sloooooowwww.  Which was okay since it was a religious holiday in which thousands of ticos walked to Basilica de Nuestra Señora de Los Angeles on a religious pilgrimage.  The walk from San José where most of us live would have been around 5 hours or 22 kilometers.  The few members from my program that went came back very happy but also sun burnt and very tired.  


Today I cooked dinner for the family, and since it was a special occasion, we had to go grocery shopping.  Which was a challenge.  But the chicken parm turned out nicely, as did my chocolate cheese cake.  Not the best things that I have ever made, but pretty darn good.  My mama tica had been nervous because apparently the last time one of her exchange students made something, it was awful.  That was not the case tonight, and now I have to get studying for my test in the morning.
