"chubasco"

Friday and the end of a long week. A couple long weeks! I feel like I have been on tour for a year.
Luckily starting next week I have some time off (starting Wednesday), and I am looking forward to waking up late and drinking coffee at home and making batidos with my blender, which I actually miss quite a bit.

Here in Heredia it is raining just a little bit, enough that you need an umbrella but not enough to call a taxi. When it rains like this you can use several different descriptive words: llovizno, pelo de gato, or chubasco. (I just learned chubasco, as you might have guessed from the title of my blog) And of course today my group has to walk home.
A little bit ago I went down to the local farmer's market, which is every Friday here in town, and bought starfruit, strawberries and mango to make batidos while I am home. I love having fresh fruit at home, and such high quality and cheap fresh fruit! E is more likely to stock cheese in the fridge, but I am all about fruit : )

Tomorrow this group goes to the airport and I go home for the weekend...cannot wait! TGIF!

Pura Vida
