    Do American citizens need a travel visa to visit Costa Rica? If so, does anyone know how to get one?

    Hey Holly, not sure if you need a passport, that's a great question. But if so, go to your local post office to get one. Look into it now though; I don't know how fast the turnaround time is in Atlanta. Maybe someone else here can add some insight...

    You do not need a travel Visa, but you must have a Passport.

    Hey Hailey, can you open up the payment button to make 2nd payment? And just to be clear, that is due on the 15th of Jan or the 1st?

    Don't worry, I DO have a passport! :-) Glad we don't need a visa, though. Dawn, I just read that our 2nd payment is due Jan. 15. (Yea!)

    @Angela
    I just went to the page to check it out, so just make sure that you go to
    "change your rsvp" and make sure it is yes, then the "pay now online" link
    should be there. If that doesn't work, go to paypal and just send the
    payment to adventures@skysthelimitclub.com Let me know if you have any other questions or issues.

    If anyone wants to save money on parking at the Airport you can leave your car in my Complex's Parking Garage and we can carpool to the Airport in the Morning... I'm on the AA 6:25 AM Flight so you would have to be here around 4:00 AM (I know insane) so we can make it to the Airport on time. With Lugage I have room for 2 People in my SUV...

    If anyone else is leaving on Sun, let me know--we can share airport parking expenses, I have a lot of room in the dodge caravan (aka, minivan lol)...and like Tino, you could leave your car in my complex. Hailey can you give me the hotel & rate info for the Lib hotel so I can decide to either stay there or somewhere else. Also, how far is it from the airport and do they have a free shuttle car/bus? Thanks! Can't wait!

    Fantastic trip! I can't believe Hailey managed to pack in so much adventure into each day. I feel like I've been gone for a month....in a good way! We had such a great group and I'm going to miss seeing everyone every day! I've created a Facebook group so we can all share photos and videos.
