Our container was released by US customs and is now on a ship sailing in the Atlantic towards Costa Rica. The ship will port on the northeast shoreline in Limon. We are living in the south Pacific so there is a long truck ride in the mountains for all our belongings. We were so relived when we got the email that our container set sail, YIPPE! This is really happening! We are really going to go on a perpetual vacation in the tropics! I was reading an article from a woman who lives in Costa Rica and she was saying that she loves to visit a certain beach area once a year so she can have "a vacation from her vacation." Now in reality, John and I are too active to be lazy for long so I figure once we catch our breaths from all this pushing to make this happen, we will find things to keep us busy. Like John with the off-grid energy and me with teaching gardening, fermenting, cheese making and other things just like I did here at Rocky Gardens. But at first we are going to sit back, sleep in, have coffee on the veranda, read, and explore. It sounds soooo good!
More Great News!
We called Vonage to close our account and were given an offer too good to pass up. We can keep our 248-634-2291 phone number and stay with Vonage for only 9.00 a month as long as we have internet service; which we have been told is working already in Serenity. If all goes as hoped, we will give up the MagicJack (and that phone number I sent out a few days ago) keep our old phone number and you can call me as if I lived in Michigan!
Costa Rica is one hour behind Michigan during cold months and during Daylight Savings Time, 2 hours behind. If you call and don't get me, leave a message. I will be happy to hear from you.
Three more full days before we fly out of here and leave behind this nasty winter created by the "Polar Vortex"! Sorry we have to leave you behind but there is room for you and yours in Serenity!
With Love,
