Forgive the day, if you can : )

In Costa Rica you do not drink tea because there isn't any there, sorry Es.

There, they have coffee with toast in the mornings. Me hermana has a cafe shop down the road from her.
Sounds like my kind of place.

I spoke in Spanish to me hermana Kim's adopted mama Vicky. I think she could understand me, but the Australian accent kind of sounded really strange to her.

Spanish: Hola, me llamo Sarah, esta mi hermana Kim ahi por favor?

English: Hi, my name is Sarah, is my sister Kim there please?

I was going to say: Hola, me llamo Sarah y soy la hermana de Kim, esta mi hermana Kim ahi por favor?

Only that would have taken too long. Vicky already said 'si' y 'si' twice when I was trying to get my sister on the phone. Me hermana has a much better accent than I do. She almost sounded like a Costa Rican when she said 'hola' on the phone.

Aparantly there's a Costa Rican version of my little cousin. When she sings, she looks exactly like her. Yes, my cousin is a keen singer. That is so cute, my cousin has a Costa Rican twin. Actually it's quite scary, if she is as boisterous as well, I didn't ask me hermana that. It's cute never the less.

Here's a post card me hermana/ sister sent to me from Costa Rica. It's huge because it scanned in like that. I re-sized it but it didn't work.
