As a way to keep you all updated with the things I see/do I will try* to post 5 pictures I took through out the week every Friday.
*I say “TRY” incase for some reason I do not have internet access.
WARNING: I AM NOT A PHOTOGRAPHER BUT WILL TRY MY BEST TO TAKE GOOD PICTURES.
Hope you all enjoy them.
The 1st picture I took on my RTW trip.
Typical Costa Rican breakfast: "gallo pinto con huevos, nutilla y plantains".
Gentleman walking down a mountain with an Ox Cart as we were making our way to Paos Volcano.
VOLCAN POAS CRATER
Lake Botos is an inactive crater also located within the Poás Volcano National Park.
I know I have not been on the road a full week, but wanted to start with the first Friday of the trip.
Have any thoughts or comments on the pictures leave them below.

Thanks Christy. How long were you in Costa Rica or Central America?
I am so happy for you. I have never met you but have been following your pre-trip for a while and was thrilled to see your first post after you landed and will look forward to reading everything you post.
I am so glad you decided to do Central America. I have spent a lot of time in Belize and CA is one of my favorite places to be in. Every one seems to “do” Asia but this just goes to show that you must be a very individual person who took an entire different route. I hope to spend a few months traveling in CA next year as well so any info you share with us will be really appreciated!!!!!
Enjoy your travels and I really look forward to going on your trip via the internet with you!
Sindy
Thanks SIndy for reading my blog, I am so glad you enjoy it. Yeah the funny thing is Central America wasn’t even part of my original plan, but things changed and well I am here now.
It’s great to see some photos of what you are up to! The crater shot is really great, I’ve only had a chance to see Mt. Vesuvius’ crater and it doesn’t look anything like that!
Can’t wait to see next weeks shots!

glad that you are on the road man, i think the first shot really sums up the start of your trip since it looks like it is at sunrise, love it!
Scott recently posted..2012 RTW Itinerary- Opening Ceremonies
Thanks Scott, yeah that pic came out great & def sums up the start of the trip!
dont forget to use all the modes that come with your camara some pics look better in black and white and also use the 1/3 motion play with you camera and when your not doing nothing you can proably you tube some stuff
o and dont always do horzontal or vertical go diagnoal to like i said have fun cause im sure your camera has a delete button
Ja thanks Remy for all the tips… I love you lil bro & miss ya~
