Flights Booked

And now it's official. I'll be traveling alone to Costa Rica from 6/7/2011-7/7/2011. A month spent completely on my own in a foreign country with nothing but the pack on my back. Scared? Maybe you are for me.  I'm not one to worry, so naturally I'm pumped for this and confident I can handle all the pickpocketers, volcanoes, pounding waves, jaguars and more than my fair share of bugs and rain.  So now it's off to the internet to scope out some of my chosen destinations:

San Jose
Arenal Volcano
Monteverde Cloud Forest
Playa Conchal
Playa Tamarindo
Manuel Antonio
Dominical
Corcovado National Park
San Jose (to fly back home)

I don't know whether or not to include Denver, CO in the list, seeing as I have a 9.5 hour layover on the return flight.  Hopefully I can escape the airport and catch a baseball game, or at least find a really good place to have a burger.
