Cheese/Crash/Traffic/FUTBOL!!!!! + the sickness...

So, after I had the cheese I started to feel kind of sick but I figured it was just because I had had a long day and we had been on the bus for what felt like forever. As we were heading back through Heredia, Alajuela and San Jose, we encountered A LOT of traffic, not to mention some pretty bad accidents along the way (5 to be precise). Apparenly everyone and their mom was going to the soccer game between the U.S. and Costa Rica, mostly because the Ticos had been robbed of the last game they played against the U.S.(lots of snow, some missed penalties) so the Tico´s figured it was payback time(also, soccer is their national sport so everyone is super passionate about it anyways). Unfortunately, because of the mad dash, we were on the bus for 4 hours trying to get to Sabanilla. By the time I made it home I was super nauseous and couldn´t eat a thing. I think my stomach wasn´t prepared for all of that unpasteurized cheese :( The next day I was super sick(no vomiting at least) but sick enough that I needed some pepto and pedialyte in order to make it through. Although I was feeling really home sick for a lot of it, I came to realize just how much everyone here cares about me and how they all try to make me feel at home here.After sleeping most of the day, I ended up feeling well enough to eat some mashed potatoes and a couple of cookies. Today already feels like it is going to be a much better day so we will see.
