I am sitting here at the airport Hilton in AC and it feels good.  The hotel is stranded on in no man’s land near the airport….a bit isolated.  I have sat briefly by the pool…took a short boring hot walk and ate popcorn in my room channel surfing.  I have to get up at 4:00 AM or a 5:00 shuttle to the airport so it is best to be here for the night.  I get into Vermont about 10:30 at night.  Long travel day.

Yesterday was wonderful.  We had great sessions to tie up any loose ends.  Last night was graduation and it was perfect.  I have some pictures.  I am not as handy getting them off the camera like John however I will share some.  For graduation we give each other the diplomas and then there is love passed all around.  Nice…very nice.

We ended the night with our usual watermelon talk session…in yoga it’s called satsung.  Yesterday Sister Cecelia, Lori and I make a dessert replica of a scorpion to thank Gary and Sho for being the scorpion removers.  It was fun and they so appreciated it.  We must have gone to bed after midnight.

Oh…in addition to all the sweet things John did for my birthday he also got someone to pick me a bouquet and made a card.  I think he is nicer than I am.

This morning we went to the last 6-8 yoga class.  I was perfect to start my travels with.  Then I had to be at the end of a trail for Danielle (from LA) to give me a ride to the hotel as she made her way to the airport.  Her family built a house about 7 years ago in Nosara.  Her husband enjoys surfing and they both love the beach.  They also wanted to give their kids exposure to a different culture.  They live in LA and make their way here for summers (really it is a nice time to be here…green) and holidays.  Nice…huh?

Anyways we have all been alerted about potential crimes with the influx of Easter week vacationers.  They put everything in her room because it is the safest…however it was broken in while we were at graduation.  Her guests lost most….ipods…iphones…cameras.  The computers were in a safe and that was tampered with yet not opened.  Bummer.  She didn’t care about that stuff only the cute necklaces she had picked out for her girls.  Those things mattered…the rest was just stuff.  A pain none the less.

We were suppose to meet a driver in Nosara however he was delayed due to the holiday weekend traffic.  So we pushed on and got here in plenty of time.  It was good to talk since I didn’t get to know her very well at the training.  It also was fun to see all the sites in the daylight.

I must say this hotel makes me think about the end of the Colony.  I will have hot water for a bath tonight.  And I will get room service and watch junky TV.  I know all this will help with my re-entry into the real world.  I have left the jungle!
