Los Angeles-San Jose by Lacsa 601

It was a nighttime flight. I saw nothing but several lights although I had window seats. Taco-like sandwich was served on the airplane. A-go, my friend coming to Central America with me, won the prize, which is a return free-tickets in the region. Oh, how I wish I could be the winner. I just seated next to him!
We arrived San Jose International Airport at 8AM in the morning. On the taxi to my friend’s house, I had the first impression of this country. It looks really green everywhere. The mountains are different from Taiwan, either. No wonder this country is called the Switzerland in Central America.
My friend’s house was located at curridabat, 15mins drive from downtown San Jose. Referred to San Jose, the small capital looked really 3rd world to me. It takes time to pursued myself this is the capital of the wealthiest country in Central America.
Although I slept along the way from Taipei to San Jose, I still felt dizzy in the afternoon, which I think was midnight in Taipei. I took the first nap in this new world and ended up in the smell of dinner.
