GO SAINTS!!

Let me tell you, the moment that the Saints intercepted the ball for a touchdown last night was one of the most exciting moments of my time here in Costa Rica.  I realize that might seem silly, but I had such a blast getting to participate in a fun American tradition and see a team and city I care deeply about win. (And then show the rest of the country what it means to celebrate!)

SuperTazón!

ahem: WHO DAT?

Costa Rica has been rude enough to schedule a presidential election the day of the Super Bowl! They have, however, been kind enough to lift a long standing law about closing all bars for the 72 hours surrounding the event.  Thank goodness!

I will be cheering on the Saints from gringo bar in San Jose this weekend - I expect it will be the most American I have felt in a good while.  Can´t wait!!

P.S. One of the front running candidates for president is a lady - I think that would be quite interesting in this most macho of places.
