Costa Rica baby!

In a few days I shall be holidaying in Costa Rica. Sounds exotic and thrilling, right? However, I’m more dreading it than looking forward to it. Even though I knew it wouldn’t change anything because the holiday is already booked, I decided to write a list of positives and negatives about Costa Rica and the holiday in general. Here it is:

Positives:

• It will be a once in a lifetime experience.

Negatives:

• Costa Rica is home to crocodiles that want to EAT ME.
• Costa Rica is also home to many species of snakes, that all want to EAT ME.
• As well as snakes and crocs, spiders and bugs are also roaming around Costa Rica and, yes, they all want to EAT ME.
• Apparently in the centre of town you are constantly hassled to buy drugs.
• Most of the planned activities start in the morning, meaning most days we’ll have to wake up at around 5 AM. 
• I had to have 4 injections immunising me against the Costa Rican diseases.

Yes, I now realise that I seem a little ungrateful, and that the one positive aspect definitely outweighs the list of negatives. Perhaps I’m just being a sulky, paranoid teenager? Either way, my parents have spent a lot of time and money on this holiday so I’ll at least have to pretend to enjoy it. But if there aren’t any blog posts in a while, just assume that I’ve been eaten by crocodiles.
