This weekend was fun and I made it back safe and sound.
Now that that is out of the way I would figure I'd tell you a little about last week etc before I jump ahead this past weekend. So...
The fun started as soon as I got to the airport in San Jose, CA to fly down here. Here is short recap:
So I walked in and didn't see Frontier. "Why not?" you ask. Because there is only one counter shoved up against the wall and they do 3 flights out of San Jose a day. No worries, it's not a main destination for them. Then the guys says do you have a returning flight? Yes, I answer. I am flying back on U.S. Airways. He says great do you have a print out. No, I answer. I was told all of the requirement are done electronically. He said, I need to see a print out or I can't let you get on the plane to Denver. Just go down to the U.S. airways counter and have them print something out for you. Doesn't sound too bad.
So, I walk right up to the U.S. Airways guy and tell him what is going on. He say's Ok, do you have a confirmation number. I said no. Do you have a credit card? No, It just got canceled today because of fraud. Do you know the number? No. Ok, what is your name. Robert Fox I tell him. Okay, let me look. ... Sorry we don't have you in our system. WHAT??!!! All I see is your flight in May from Austin. ... I have never been to Austin in my life. Maybe try Rob Fox. ... still nothing. Few minutes pass with him and now another agent trying to find me. Still the guy has a brilliant idea, Do you have your computer with you he asks? YES, yes I do! So I pull up my email and give him my confirmation. Two seconds later I have my printout in hand walking back to the counter tucked against the wall known as Frontier.
All I can think is WOW, this trip is off to a great start! 4 months here we come!

Back to class :(
This last weekend was fun. I made it back safe and sound.
Sorry for such a short post but class is about to start, so I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still alive.
I will try to post more updates soon.

My first post ever!
Okay. So like most things, this blog has been an idea in my head for a while but I procrastinated and put it off. With some ever so gentle cattle prodding from Nicole, I finally created my blog. But hey, I am an idea guy. I have lots of ideas for people to do something with... using my incredible creative skills I came up with robfoxsblog! Ingenious isn't it?!
I do not know much I will be able to blog, but Nicole and Summer love doing it and this will be a way for family and friends to be able to see what I am up to.
I have now complete my first week of school at INCAE down here in Costa Rica ( I will write more about this later) and about to leave on my first excursion. I am going with 4 other exchange students to the beach. We haven't really figured out what we are doing, but we are going anyway. We are headed to Jaco and/or Manuel Antonio.
I will do my best to post somewhat frequently, eventhough they may be little posts. I doubt that I will have much internet access this weekend... so you will most likely just have to wait with baited breath until I get back.
Hope everyone is well!
