Your blog looks awesome, and I will be following closely.<br /><br />Jesse: you got /bedbug/ bites from a movie theater?! And 300!? That the hell? Did you feel them crawling on you/see them? And jeebus, the hotel stay sounds gosh-awful. Which place was this?<br /><br />I don't believe I've ever heard your Costa Rica stories! Did you have long hippy hair in those days? ;) <br /><br />Aunt Jan: I've been using a lot of Caladryl, and it works well, though my guess is that it isn't heavy-hitting enough for poison sumac (how'd you manage to get that?). My mom used to put it on our mosquito bites when we were little. It is kind of comforting that it still looks and smells the same as I remember :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146709337129480983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182273100472688095.post-90484014615381328982010-08-16T09:06:30.381-07:002010-08-16T09:06:30.381-07:00hi becky,

Fortunately, I have a pretty mild reaction. 3 weeks later, a planned 2-day drive back from Minnesota turned into a drive through the night when we discovered bed bugs in our hotel room. Linnea woke up at 1am itching, and found bed bugs in the sheets (fortunately Linnea reacts instantly to bed bug bites; a canary in the coal mine so to speak). Ironically, we had watched True Blood just before going to sleep.<br /><br />Love the blog. It brings back memories from when I was in Costa Rica, like the fear of electrocution every time you take a shower.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06600087111758155276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182273100472688095.post-82503261656505882052010-08-14T03:07:21.758-07:002010-08-14T03:07:21.758-07:00Pole pole (slowly).

They are getting a bit of the run-around, so I am just hanging out with Edward's siblings in Morogoro, practicing swahili and eating a lot of rice and beans. You inspired me to do a travel blog too, if you want to check it out.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13628037444832877351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182273100472688095.post-30524552923434236322010-08-13T15:33:19.244-07:002010-08-13T15:33:19.244-07:00Thanks Kara :) How's your Africa adventure goi...Thanks Kara :) How's your Africa adventure going?Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146709337129480983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182273100472688095.post-53243850405291391092010-08-12T01:15:03.103-07:002010-08-12T01:15:03.103-07:00Wow what a series of adventures.

I wonder what is wrong with them that they die so quickly. Good luck with raiding your bed! Mindy had a similar issue when she was in Bolivia & Peru. Sleep better!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13628037444832877351noreply@blogger.com
