Now, here's a recipe based almost solely on feelings of nostalgia, or Noshtalgia, as the cute and clever Amey as so dubbed her theme (so many cool posts, btw!). I think it's a little hard to find someone who didn't have macaroni and cheese with hot dogs sliced up in it. Like, here's this awesome cheesy mess of a pasta dish, let's throw some salty, hot dog mystery meat in it. Yaaaay!
But, really, I loved it. It has been YEARS since I've had something like it. When my friend Tristan and I were coming up with Born to Mac recipe ideas, he had an idea of a macaroni corn dog. Now, just think about that for a second. It doesn't really make a whole lot of sense, and there are a few different ways that you could interpret that title. Eventually, I took it and turned it into these macaroni bites because they are awesome, fun, and easier to make than I imagine a macaroni corn dog would be.
That's not to say that I wont take on that challenge further down the line, but that takes some interesting planning and maybe some denying of physics to make happen. 😉 I picture these bites being a totally hit on game day, since I know some of you watch football, or just snack on food while the games are playing in the background like I do. Their just a little crumbly so I feel that they are better eaten with a fork, but if you're down to get messy, treat 'em like finger foods.
One Year Ago: Sweet Potato Hash with Chipotle Seitan Sausage
Two Years Ago: Reader's Recipes
- 2 C. Dried Pasta + Water for Boiling
- 2 C. Vegan Cheddar Shreds + ⅓ C. for Topping
- 1-1¼ C. Non-Dairy Milk
- 2 T. Vegan Butter or Margarine (or Coconut Oil)
- Pinch of Salt
- ⅔ C. Panko Bread Crumbs
- Optional: Finely Chopped Broccoli
- 3 Yves Tofu Dogs, Each Hot Dog Sliced into 4 Pieces
- Preheat oven to 350ºF and get a 12-ct. cupcake baking sheet out. Cook pasta according to the directions on the package, then drain and rinse with cool water.
- Return the drained pasta to the pot and heat over medium. Add the cheddar shreds, non-dairy milk and vegan butter to the noodles.
- Stir the mixture until the shreds melt completely. Once creamy, fold in the panko bread crumbs with the salt.
- Oil the cupcake pan and start assembling the mac 'n' cheese hot dog bites by filling up each insert half way with macaroni.
- Gently press down on the pasta to flatten it slightly, then place one hot dog piece in the middle of each one.
- Fill to the top with the rest of the mac, press down gently, again. Then, sprinkle the remaining cheddar shreds on top.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, making sure that the shreds are melted on top. Wait 5-10 minutes before serving.

Building Cookie Cottages: Creature Comforts
Source: Martha Stewart Living, December 2006
A bright gummy bird and chubby marshmallow snowman greet visitors to this thatched cottage. To create the look of freshly fallen snow, we used frosted-wheat cereal for the roof, yogurt-covered pretzels for the fence, and nougat candy for the walkway. The double doors are graham cracker sticks with knobs made from mini candy-coated chocolates. The nose of the snowman is a cone cut from an orange spice drop and gently rolled; his hat is a piece of black gumdrop, and his eyes are sprinkles pressed into pinpricked holes. Assemble his feathered friend with a gummy fruit slice, a spice drop, a mini candy-coated chocolate, and sprinkles.

Document Number: 5153Scaling Up First Things First: Findings from the First Implementation Year - This report evaluates the implementation of the First Things First comprehensive school reform program. Originally implemented in Kansas City, Kansas in 1998, the program strives to change the structure, instruction and accountability and governance of traditional high schools in order to improve academic achievement at traditionally low-performing schools. This report analyzes the implementation of the program at a small group of middle and high schools in Texas, Mississippi and Missouri, beginning in 1999. The results of this study were inconclusive. Full implementation of the program was not universal, and the attitudes of teachers and students changed in key areas from the initial �planning year� to the second �implementation year.� The report points to an upcoming study on additional schools and to a final study as providing more definitive analysis as to the effectiveness of the program. An executive summary also is available. (Janet C. Quint, D. Crystal Byndloss with Bernice Melamud, MDRC, December 2003)...

The much discussed Point Reyes trip took place this weekend! Tony Wong will provide the "official" trip report after he finds time to sort through the 500+ photos he took. In the meantime...Twelve people attended, but I can only remember 11 names right now (my apologies to the 12th, I'm really bad with names). At any rate, a good time was had by:Ken HelwigJoshua BillingsJay WilkersonKen ThompsonCasey BowdenJeremy PendreyTony WongCary BertonciniNate MeinzerWillCameron KennedyEveryone but me hiked into Wildcat on Saturday from the south via the Palomarin trailhead and exited Sunday at the Bear Valley Visitor Center trailhead.I opted to come and go from the east via fireroads on my bicycle. My route was 6.5 miles each way, starting at elevation 250 at the Five Brooks trailhead, topping out at elevation 1,324 before dropping down to sea level at the campsite. The ride took me 45 minutes each way and was a blast due to the long downhill sections at the end of each day. It was overcast and windy all Saturday but the weather changed for the better and we had blue skies on Sunday.This was my first time meeting any of these upstanding citizens and I was surprised to find Jay much mellower than my preconceived notion based on his posts while Ken Helwig was just the opposite. He had us in stiches all night and made sure no one in our group, or anyone else in Wildcat, went to bed before 11 pm.I'll post a few of the less than 10 photos I took soon. I'm already looking forward to next year.
Edited by clbowden on 01/25/2009 16:36:00 MST.
Lane!Though, I can't remember last names, so impressive list.
Casey,It was more like 254 photos and I am sure that a vast majority of them won't make the cut for the photo essay.To everyone....it was great to meet you all and to put a face to the names that I have seen here.Now I know how to submit the paperwork for those restraining order that will be delivered to each of you gear lovin, backpacking freaks! :)Really enjoyed the trip and spending some good gear geeking time with my fellow BPLers.Time to think about the next trip: Yosemite Hetch Hetchy Reservoir- Rancharia.Anyway, I am off to wash the mud off my clothes and to enjoy a hot shower!-Tony
Had a blast! Thanks again all for a great trip. Those who bailed missed a great floor show! Felt bad for this group, saw them when I first got there. Knew immediately, not my group
Edited by DaveT on 05/12/2015 16:06:11 MDT.
Hey Ken - you really had me worried there for a moment (they CAN'T be BPL members!) until I read your text!We need a similar group photo from Tony for comparison. :-)Cheers
One is on its way Roger!

What a fun group of UL backpackers. I have never had so much fun just talking about GEAR.. It was great to see everyone come out of there INTERVERTED shells. Can't wait for the next hike. "High Five"
To everyone who went out on the trip, I need your help!Apparently, my camera was set to video mode while Denis was taking photos of us at the trail head on the step facing Denis.Could someone send me a PM and I will reply back with my email address so that they can send me that photo?Thanks!-Tony
Got your Pm Tony, I will send you the photo this evening
It was great meeting all of you fellow Nor Cal UL'ers this past weekend. It was very cool seeing all the various UL shelters and gear. I've never seen so much Dyneema in one place.Time to plan the next trip. I know Ken H. was talking Rancheria Falls / Hetch Hetchy in April.And again I got away without bringing a camera . . .For those who didn't go:Trip highlights:lightest shelter: Cameron's cuben fiber MLD Monk tarpfarthest distance traveled: Ken Thompson from Fortuna, CA, which might as well be in Oregon (or "Jefferson" or whatever they call themselves up there)heaviest piece of gear: Cary's box of 3 liters of wine, which came in somewhere in the neighborhood of 7 pounds, but of course was weightless on the way out, so maybe he wins for lightest piece of gear too.spirit award: Nate and Will with Christmas lights on their Go Lite Hut 2.Oh yeah, I almost forgot: best navigation: Ken T. and Josh for getting out ahead of us and then taking the "scenic route" back to the car (showing up an hour later than us "stragglers").
Edited by Pendrey on 01/26/2009 13:51:20 MST.
for Lightest pack goes to you Jeremy, I believe, for coming in ~13 lbs.
Good time indeed....more like, "When ULer's go bad!" :)Jeremy is being modest/humble, but his pack won the distinction of being the lightest at 13 lbs and he was carrying a bottle of wine in a platypus.I am going to quickly plow through my photos can digitally clean them up in Photoshop Elements with the idiot quick fix feature and then toss them up with minimal text.I will leave it to members of the group to add their own comments....hehehe.-Tony
I wasn't able to hike with the group, but showed up to meet some of the NoCa BPL group. This is a photo I took at the end of the hike.The NoCa BPL lineup (The Usual Suspects). Someone with a better memory can put names to the faces.Tony will have a full report and photos.
Thanks for all your help Dennis!!!-Jay
Nice to hear everything worked out. Sounds like you guys had a good time. I look forward to reading the trip report and see the photos.
Trip reports and photos are in the Photo Section
Some 100 photos of this trip are now posted in the photo gallery.Please come see what happens when light weight backpackers go bad...-Tony
He will be appearing on Huell Howser's "California Gold" tomorrow evening, Tuesday Feb 10, at 7pm PST (KVIE Channel 6 around Norcal) - episode includes the towns of Smartsville and Timbuktu (Lane recently co-authored a book about this area)

...What responsibilities? Did you seriously just ask me that? Do you read my posts?
Stay-at-home-moms work their aprons off when Summer hits. There is no time for bonbons. There is no time for daytime trash TV. We put on full protective gear and cute matching camo outfits and run into the fray for 2.5 months.
The tasks assigned to me over the summer included (but were not limited to): chambermaid, professional organizer, short order cook, event coordinator, life coach, lifeguard, personal shopper, personal assistant, complimentary shuttle van driver, payroll manager, and overworked referee --very overworked referee. And I did all of this for the low, low cost of my sanity.
By mid-August, I had completely lost
I seriously contemplated giving up blogging altogether. I really did. I thought that perhaps my time to share the crazy in my life with the world was coming to the end of its natural life. That maybe I should shut the whole operation down and turn this subprime piece of internet real estate into a mail order bride outlet: "Canadian Wives: We Got Your Beaver Right Here."
Why are you laughing? That part wasn't funny. I was talking about closing my blog down. It's a sad thought that is undoubtedly reducing you to big, wet tears, right? Right?
I was at a very low point in my creative life: feeling burned out, overwhelmed, with no hope in sight.
And then, yesterday, just as I had given up all hope of ever being awesome again, this little yellow dot appeared on the horizon.
Was it a canary?
A loud banana?
The Man with the Yellow Hat?
Nay, friends. It was the school bus. The wonderful school bus, packed to the brim with wonderful children going to wonderful school!
And just like that, I felt fucking wonderful again!
So, here I am, writing a blog post on day 2 of many, many glorious days of public education. Am I subpar parent for the joy I felt when I could hand two of my children over to the system five days a week? Probably. Do I feel guilty about it? Not really, no. I'm over feeling guilty about parenting stuff. I could find things to feel guilty about every single day. Do I want to be depressed my entire life? Do I want to feel like a failure 365 days a year? No. So I turn the guilt dial way, way down.
Then, I drown the rest of my conscience out with coffee. It's better for everyone that way.
And, with my guilt dial being held down with a popsicle stick and half a roll of duct tape, I did another great thing: I enrolled Spawnling in a pre-kindergarten program 2 days a week. That's six hours on Monday and six hours on Wednesday for a grand total of 12 hours each week, or 48 hours every month. If I do the math - and believe me, I have - that will be about 480 hours this school year that are entirely dedicated to The Maven and her craft. Minus sick days, of course.
But who's counting?
Don't look at me like that. He's ready, you know. He's been begging me to go to school for two years. And besides, after well over a decade of raising kids full-time, I could use a little scheduled breathing room. I deserve this. I've earned it. Been there, done that, have the after hours comfort food binge rolls to prove it. Stop judging me! I don't need your repressive eyes upon my person.
... Oops. I think someone moved the popsicle stick. Anyone see the tape?

Product DescriptionA predecessor to the A-Bolt, Browning's BBR was built by Miroku in Japan and helped prove that Japanese companies could deliver rifles that lived up to high European standards. The BBR uses a Mauser-style action that's machined from a solid billet of steel. The BBR was often known as the "fat bolt" because it has a much larger bolt diameter than most rifles. The rifle's receiver was made thicker to accept the bolt's size. This high-quality rifle features a 2-position safety and 24" barrel. Its wood and metal are in good condition. Its bore is in very good condition.

05/28/02 Palladium Vote
It was though I felt a body blow when the tax abatement was passed this week for
I was optimistic when Laura was elected this year because I had such high hopes
that she would be able to stop this insanity! Mike Moses apparently has
been able to do this for the school board. Perhaps, Laura will eventually
be able to do it for the city. I know she did her best but was unable to
compete with what I am sure was "under the table" dealing with the
"yes" voters. In addition, she doesn't have the legal
administrative power that Dr. Moses has to turn around a listing ship.
Do I have any proof of under the table influence? No! However, in
the history of most votes in this city except the last mayoral election,
money or favors has passed to the folks who influenced the vote so why should
this time be any different? It is partially an issue of trust that
electees in this city will behave ethically.
Remember Kirk's wife and the Hicks stock, the previous city manager and the
switching to working for Hicks, the "paid for", write in votes in the
Southern sector and money made by the business community. I'm sure in the
next year there will be an article published somewhere about what went on under
the table for this one. There has already been some discussion of this.
We are in the process of buying a new house for early retirement since we
downsized too much when we moved from Plano to Dallas years ago. I love
living almost downtown but between the high cost of land and new houses in
Dallas and the sinking feeling I have about the future of Dallas, we may pull
the plug and leave the city in the next year. Too bad.
I'd rather stay but I want my city government working for the citizens and the
city, not special interests. I wonder how many other people are beginning
to feel the same way as we are?

Working Together to Combat Child Labour
Maria Gabriella Lay
Child labour, rooted in poverty and in unjust social systems, deprives children of education, health and safety. Abolishing child labour has thus been a priority for ILO action since its founding in 1919. On the first World Day Against Child Labour - 12 June 2002 - the ILO launched a large scale programme, Supporting Children's Rights through Education, the Arts and the Media (SCREAM) to promote children's participation and ensure their outlook is reflected in mainstream world affairs. This approach corresponds closely to Montessori's understanding of children's intrinsic need for "movement" and "action" to develop harmoniously through purposeful activity. While using their intelligence and will in such creative "real-life activities", children and adolescents also deepen their ethical development with others worldwide in artistic, uplifting endeavors.
Montessori Erdkinder: The Social Evolution of the Little Community
David Kahn
The "Erdkinder" idea is neither a school for farming, a laboratory for ecological study, nor solely a boarding school. The core focus is engagement around community. It is a microcosmic social experience. It is a stepping stone to the supreme reality of adult society in the context of nature and supra-nature in a modern search for spiritual human development through balance of inner human needs and external social conditions. Given the difficulty of predicting what skills and knowledge will be useful to the next generation of productive adults, Montessori education looks to certain values, attitudes, and understanding of how natural and human systems interact evolving towards higher levels of human solidarity and world cooperation.
Montessori in Indigenous Cultures
Panel: Don Anderson (presented by Ian Mackie), Jean Little
The panel will present a first-hand account of a Montessori Indigenous project in Northern Queensland, highlighting the unique collaboration between Indigenous and Montessori communities and government agencies in service of the child. Indigenous communities in the far north of Australia face great challenges due to the disruption of their culture with life expectancy and quality of life far below the rest of Australia. Coming together to champion the cause of children has led to mutual understanding and revelation. Indigenous communities appreciate Montessori's respect for their culture, common sense approach and the freedom to learn afforded their children. The Montessori community has found an understanding of the relevance of Indigenous culture in modern times a missing piece, an enlivening of the spirit, and a deep concern for people, the land and all children. The presentation will include video footage of Montessori Indigenous projects in Australia.

Montessori and Indigenous People: We Share Our Dreams
Video produced by Australian AMI Alumni Association and NAMTA

Emphasis is placed on how the values of Indigenous culture mesh with Montessori philosophy as represented by projects and principal advocates in Cairns West (QLD), Redfern (Sydney, NSW), and Wadja Wadja (Woorabinda, QLD). The desire for Montessori education by indigenous peoples is documented through interviews on location. (2005, 15 minutes)
The Century Past: The Montessori Revolution in Retrospect
Monte Kenison
A pictorial overview of the first century of the Montessori Movement.
The Century Forward: A Vision of the Montessori Movement for the Next Century
Molly O'Shaughnessy
"Vision is the art of seeing the invisible." Jonathan Swift
Dr. Montessori was an artist capable of seeing the invisible. In order to keep the Montessori movement alive and vibrant, we too must see not only what is behind us, but also what is in front of us, what may be beyond our own comprehension. Vision requires faith, commitment and work execution requires the same. We must remind ourselves, Dr. Montessori's work this great workis still in its infancy. She herself states this "Although it is quite true that man as an individual can improve and that society can be based on principles of justice and love, all of us are aware that these goals do not constitute a reality just beyond our grasp but rather an aspiration whose fulfilment lies far in the future." (Education and Peace xi)
We have a choice. We can degenerate or we can carry the vision forward. It is our duty and honour to carry it forward. It is our greatest hope for humanity.
Our Essential Mandate
Renilde Montessori
It is a Montessori principle to take as a point of departure the whole and then study its components; to contemplate the general and then investigate its particulars; to consider the large vision and then scrutinise its details, always returning to the whole, the general and the large vision for orientation. Educators cannot be honest educators unless they look to the vast enigma that is our universe, to our modest solar system within it, to our planet and its many and varied inhabitants, to our species as one among them and finally, with greatest glee, to our children. Then it becomes incumbent upon us to stand very still and contemplate with delight the interplay between their individual uniqueness and the universal characteristics common to all young perpetuators of the life form known as man. Maria Montessori said educators must be scientists dedicated to the study of the child. To what end? To learn how best to help and encourage the wholesome development of its human potential. This implies unceasing, assiduous observation of children within the context of their physical, intellectual and spiritual milieu. It also implies thorough familiarity with the developmental phenomena common to all children, and a high level of alertness to the elements pertaining to the children's environment. Perhaps the most astounding revelation when observing children is the quality of their observation of the environment. In them it is an essential, vital function, following a powerful inner directive that underpins the entire process of their self-construction. The awareness of this phenomenon brings with it a happy sense of complicity between ourselves and our children, allowing us to carry out with vigour and joy our essential mandate ~ none other than absolute dedication to Education as an aid to Life.

"The Prayer"
Music and lyrics by Carole Bayer Sager and David Foster; Italian lyric by Alberto Testa and Tony Renis
I pray you'll be our eyes and watch us where we go,
And help us to be wise in times when we don't know.
Let this be our prayer, when we lose our way
Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace to a place where we'll be safe.
I pray we'll find your light and hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night, eternal light will shine
Let this be our prayer when shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place. Guide us with your grace.
Give us faith so we'll be safe.
We're dreaming of a world that has no violence
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
A world without injustice, war and hunger
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Where neighbours give a helping hand to strangers as a sign of friendship, brotherhood and love
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino simbolo di pace, e di fraternita
We ask that life be kind and watch us from above.
We hope each soul will find another soul to love.
Let this be our prayer.
Just like every child needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace. Give us faith so we'll be safe.
And now with this faith which is in our hearts, we can feel that we'll be safe.
E la fede che hai acceso in noi, Sento che ci salvera.

Teachers Get the Blues
Spend your Capital Day with the Wexner Center for the Arts and Jazz Arts Group and embrace the power of the blues. We'll learn about the blues as a vehicle for cultural and personal expression as we experience both live musical performances and the Wexner Center's Blues for Smoke exhibition. Drawing inspiration from these sources and our own personal stories, we'll learn strategies for creating written work in the literary blues form that can be performed by our "house band" at the end of our session. Come listen, look, write, and (if you're brave enough) perform with us, and leave with a range of classroom ideas that will help your students do the same. Lunch will be included.
This workshop is full. To be added to the wait list, please call (614) 292-6493 or email email@example.com.

Guys come on.....its because of reviews like these that companies are loading our supplements with chemicals. This vitamin does not contain all those so called "natural flavors/colors to make it taste and look good to make us want to buy it.....but this is what we should buy because its the real deal....its good for us, its what our bodies need to function the way it should...so come on guys forget the taste, its pure and that's what should matter....
Now I'm sure I've got some B vitamins in me )))

I've got Crohn's disease, so it's always a chance that the tablet will go through my intestines without dissolving. That's why I started taking the tablets in microlingual form. Vitamins B are of crucial importance to those like me. The taste is nasty, but it only lasts for a couple of minutes and I eat or drink something good after taking this tablet. It gives me more energy which I do need because I feel down due to cytostatic drugs. I think I'll buy it again!
Makes me relax

The difference between other B complex is that "Superior Source" makes me calmer in five minutes, suppose the B quantities are the reason. Good for headache. Similar to "Life Time liquid B" but portable and no need to refrigerate. 60 tablets, may be too short. Make it higher! :)
I feel better now.

I found I had to have b12 injections because my b12 was so low that I was having memory problems! I Could not absorb b12 naturally. I started looking for a product that would save me from having to go to the doctors for injections! I found the b12 in this product! Then I was advised to take more of the 'B' s group for depression and fatigue. So I tried this product - b12+ all the Bs I needed. The difference is remarkable. Once I had trouble getting through each day:( now I have a renewed vigour!!!!! :) YAY
Great B-complex vitamin

TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to establishing the open season for hunting coyote
PURPOSE: Establishes the open season for hunting coyotes as October 1 through May 31.

Well, the tree is already outside (waiting to be decorated with edible ornaments for our animal friends), the decorations are packed away, the rooms have been rearranged to accomodate the new gifts (and the teething puppy), and I am snuggling in with a cup of tea listening to the sleet hitting the window panes. My loves are upstairs asleep...one with a flu, one just plain tired little girl, and one who's supposed to sleep 18 hours a day (right...). Fly is by my side, curled up at my feet. I am so grateful for him and his presence.
Our Christmas was lovely. Dinners with family and friends, delicious food, good wine, laughter, surprises, and lots of love. The presents were handmade or thrifted (more on those later) and it was so nice to celebrate simply. Next year I want it even simpler.
Now we are settling in to a new rhythm with a puppy. Lots of walks, lots of learning, and lots of chewy toys.
We are expecting our first blizzard tonight. We're all anxious to wake up to a winter wonderland. There is hot chocolate to be made, sledding to enjoy, snowmen to construct, and snowshoes in need of wear. I think it will be an exciting day.
I'm anticipating the start of the new year. There is much to reflect upon as we leave behind this past one, and much to look forward to with the fresh start of the next one.
I hope you enjoyed your holidays too. I would love to hear about them. Would you share? xoxo.

Michigan wide receiver Jehu Chesson.

One of the most wide-open positions for the Michigan football team this spring is wide receiver.
After losing Jeremy Gallon, who set the program's single-season receiving yardage last year, there's a massive hole to fill, not to mention his uncanny connection with quarterback Devin Gardner.
Converted tight end Devin Funchess returns as the No. 1 target given his NFL-level skill and production from last year with 49 catches for 748 yards and six touchdowns. ...

Christopher Tappin makes first court appearance

February 29, 2012
British businessman Christopher Tappin has made his first appearance in court after being extradited to the US.
Mr Tappin, who lost his two-year battle against being sent to America last week, faces up to 35 years in jail if convicted over arms dealing charges.
Last night he appeared for a five-minute preliminary hearing in the federal court in El Paso, Texas, and was remanded in custody to appear for a bail hearing on Friday.
Attorney General Dominic Grieve said his extradition had highlighted problems with the treaty between the UK and US, which are not "readily curable".

The Osa Peninsula
Blue Osa is located about 8 miles south of Puerto Jimenez on the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica which National Geographic Magazine labeled "the most biologically intense place on Earth." We are nearest to the border of the world-renowned Corcovado National Park and on the warm shores of the Golfo Dulce. While visiting our tropical eco-resort you are likely to spot some of Costa Rica's shyest and most endangered rainforest inhabitants, including the red-backed squirrel monkey, scarlet macaws, harpy eagles, and maybe even a jaguar.
Costa Rica is located on the Central American isthmus, it borders Nicaragua to the north and Panama to the south. The Caribbean Sea is to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Costa Rica is slightly north of the equator, therefore the climate is tropical year round. Costa Rica was and continues to be a pioneer country in eco-tourism, drawing visitors to the extensive National Parks and protected areas across the country.
Prepare to Travel
Do I need a passport or a visa to travel to Costa Rica?
All Canadian, US and EU citizens who travel to Costa Rica for tourism and pleasure purposes need a valid passport. Please check your passport to make sure you have at least 6 months validity from the time you enter Costa Rica. If it is not, you should get your passport renewed before you come to Blue Osa. A visa is not required.
Is there a departure tax when leaving Costa Rica?
When you leave Costa Rica, you will have to pay a departure tax of $29 USD. It must be paid at Juan Santamaria International Airport before going through airport security. The tax is payable in either colones, U.S. dollars, or with Visa/Mastercard.
Upon your arrival into San Jose at Juan Santamaria International Airport, you will need to make a connection that will bring you south down to the Osa Peninsula.
A flight from San Jose to Puerto Jimenez takes approximately 45 minutes.
Blue Osa recommends Nature Air, the only airline in the entire world that has reduced their carbon footprint to zero (something which, as an Eco-Resort, we greatly admire, appreciate and endorse). Nature Air is a safe and customer-service oriented airline that services all of Costa Rica. Please click here to book your flight to Puerto Jimenez now.
You may also receive special customized service by emailing our colleagues at Nature Air directly. Please make sure you ask them for the special Blue Osa discount.
Laura – firstname.lastname@example.com
Alvaro – firstname.lastname@example.com
Alternatively upon your arrival at Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) in San Jose, you can fly Sansa Airlines to Puetro Jimenez. Click here to for more information.
Please email us to arrange a Blue Osa shuttle to and from the Puerto Jimenez Airport. Include your full name, arrival and departure times on Nature Air or Sansa.
If you are visiting Blue Osa with a group retreat, give this information to your group leader to schedule with Blue Osa as soon as its available.
Once the shuttle request form is received by us, a shuttle confirmation will be emailed to you. Blue Osa is 20 – 30 minutes from the Puerto Jimenez airport. Our shuttle service is $20.
The drive from San Jose to Blue Osa is approximately 6-8 hours. Set your Google Maps or Waze for Blue Osa Yoga Retreat. (See map below for directions.)
Recommended car rental companies – Solid Rent a Car and Toyota. 4 wheel drive is recommended.
Please click here to Discover Costa Rica!
Traveling by bus is recommended only by experienced travelers or if you are adequate in the Spanish language.
Bus – Terminal Atlantico Norte (Tel: 2256-8963, or when calling from abroad (506) 256-8963) buses leave daily from San José and pass through San Isidro de El General where passengers can also get on. Bus 699 from Terminal Atlantico Norte leaves from San Jose at 6am and 12noon, taking about 10 hours to reach Puerto Jimenez. The Tracopa Bus 612 from Terminal Alfaro to Golfito can also be taken, which takes about 8 hours and leaves at 7am and 3pm. The TRACOPA company telephone number is 2222-2666 or when calling from abroad (506) 222-2666. Click here to read a full description of the journey.
The ferry from Golfito to Puerto Jimenez takes about an hour and a half and runs twice daily. Schedule is random and subject to change. Price $4. There are also fast ferries available that can do the trip in about 30 minutes, the cost is $6. The schedule can change.
PUERTO JIMÈNEZ from Golfito by boat – DEPARTURE: Daily, from Municipal Dock (Muelle) at 11:00; RETURN: 6:00; 1:30 hrs. Office tel. 2735-5036.
Colones is the official currency of Costa Rica, although US dollars are widely accepted.
Items and activities purchased at Blue Osa can be charged to your room and paid with a credit card at the end of your stay. The amount of local currency that you need depends on how much you intend to spend on extra purchases outside of the property.
For Americans, it is really not necessary to convert any money to local currency (colones) as all businesses happily accept U.S. dollars (however, expect your change to be in colones). In fact, we suggest that you do NOT change any money and bring several smaller bills so you do not receive any change. The current rate of exchange fluctuates around 500 colones for every 1 US dollar.
Spanish is the official language of Costa Rica, although English is widely understood.
Staying In San Jose?
We REALLY encourage you to plan a night or two in San Jose when traveling to Blue Osa. There are so many things to do (click here), and really great places to stay (click here). Stop rushing, get out, and explore Costa Rica on your way to Blue Osa.
You do not need any shots or vaccines before visiting Costa Rica. However, we always recommend speaking with your Doctor and referencing the World Health Organization before traveling anywhere.
When to Visit
Because the Osa Peninsula is blessed with wonderful weather year round, there really isn't a "best" time to visit. Though most guidebooks list the ideal time to travel to Costa Rica as December through May, we enjoy a stable climate of 75-85 degrees relatively year-round.
Of course, don't try looking for that information via online weather reports. Our private oasis is SO off the map, Google has yet to find us. FUN FACT: The 19,730 miles (about the size of West Virginia) that make up Costa Rica actually house 20 different climate zones! The bottom line?
The time to visit is whenever you want! Click here to read our weekly weather reports.
What to Pack
The tropical climate here makes it very comfortable to wear simple,
lightweight clothing and footwear. Quick-to-dry clothing and tennis shoes, sandals, or water shoes work best. The Osa Peninsula is characterized by
warm, breezy days, with highs between 82 and 92 degrees, and lows in the range of 70-80. Keep in mind that Blue Osa is surrounded by jungle so it is
also often humid here.
Ideal packing guide, based on a week long stay here:
• 3 or 4 tank tops or lightweight T-Shirts
• Bathing suit
• 3 or 4 pairs of shorts
• If coming to participate in a Yoga Retreat, bring your Yoga Mat. Also available for rent.
• A journal and pen for taking notes is usually considered essential.
• A flashlight or headlamp. Perfect for those fond of midnight walks on the beach.
• Sunscreen/bug spray is available in the Blue Osa shop.

Like many retailers, A&F requires sales associates to wear its apparel when they're working on the floor. But Miles Locker, chief lawyer for the state labor commissioner, says that the Ohio-based retailer tried to shift the expense to employees. "Workers who weren't dressed 'in season' were told by management to buy appropriate clothing on the spot or face the risk of being sent home unpaid," says Locker, who brought a class-action suit against A&F. The Feds may also get involved, Locker adds, subtracting the cost of clothing from a worker's salary and thus determining that they have essentially been paid less than the minimum wage. California has filed similar suits against Chico's, the Gap, and Polo-Lauren. In June, A&F settled the case with no admission of wrongdoing.
