October 30

Run to Nicaragua was interesting yesterday...they always are...rules always change...
This time when we first crossed into Nicaragua we were greeted by a group of about 15 people which appeared to be nurses ad doctors with masks and gloves on...Ebola...they scanned our temperatures and then took our passports and recorded our information and asked where we had been in the last 30 days.
Later when we got to the window where we enter Nicaragua (on paper) they were only wearing the gloves but between customers they were eating food with their gloves on, I really don't think they understood how one gets infected...
Funny part is when we came back into Costa Rica there was none of this...no masked nurses and doctors greeting us, etc...

Nothing much else going on, just tests in patience...still no internet at bakery,

Pura Vida!

October 14

Rough day yesterday, Arno and I left at 5am for SJO and got in about 8pm, exhausted!
Plus I woke up all stuffed up 
and went through half a box of kleenex throughout the day driving around...
Good news is we got the part for the oven and a bunch of other things...car loaded full with no room left as usual for us LOL
Arno and I should not be allowed to go to Pequeno Mundo!

We stopped off at the bakery around 7:30 and Scott went to work repairing the oven, I went home and to bed, feeling pretty crappy...
Not great but better this morning!!!

Yucky day yesterday...Oven died at bakery, was going to Tamarindo anyways for Liane's Bday so went on a mission to find the part...
no luck but some good leads for Monday in SJO to get the part I need
So nothing I can do about that now so let's party~
