Errands, Errands & Hurricanes

PHEW...what a crazy few weeks. Kudos to all you guys that have had big weddings in town, I can't imagine the amount of work that went into that! I've heard from some friends that it took every weekend for a year to get their weddings planned...although Mel and I haven't gone through that, it's been hectic with the wedding and the trip. We'll be glad when we're done planning..Which means Tuesday! Although there are some items left to figure out for the trip...we'll do the rest on our 3 days back here after the wedding.


For those of you watching the news, Hurricane Beta (they're using the Greek alphabet now) did not hit Costa Rica directly. Manuel Antonio is on the pacific coast where hurricanes are rare this time of year and Beta was another Atlantic hurricane. Basically the pacific coast did get rained on, but none of the water surges/wind that were expected on the Atlantic side.



Speaking of hurricanes what's with the Greek alphabet names now? What about Indian or Chinese names? Doing that would also solve the problem of people not evacuating, a name like Hurricane Bhupendra would surely scare those Floridians into leaving their homes no?!
