I'll keep in contact....looks like it's going to hit above us now...yay for us, boo for them.

 

I am feeling good right now...nothing going on. We bought a crapton of water and food we can eat just in case we lose power....then my mom came home with a generator! ha! I am glad we are staying with my parents right now...I feel like I have to take care of them, even though they are in better "condition" than I am!

i just looked at the new projected path. I hope it loses strength because it's heading right for my family.

Oh this hurricane sucks!

 

Martha - I'm glad you are feeling ok right now. I'm sure your parents are glad you guys are there with them. I think the food, water and generator is a great idea. You can never be too prepared.

 

Morgan - I'm so sorry to hear it's heading towards your family. Are you in contact with them? Have they had to evacuate?

 

Funny story....well not really funny but kinda. Our boss lives in Houston and is in our Dallas office Mon-Thur. Well, he is at home right now (in Houston) TAPEING up his windows. Uuummm hello....tape? Seriously? What is he thinking? They're saying Houston may only get like 80mph winds - which is definitely something your windows can handle - but tape? He cracks me up!!

they have not had to evacuate their town. my mom doesn't evacuate even if it's advised. She'd only do it if its mandatory. a few years ago when rita hit, the evacuation was the worst part. also, there was a time she didn't evacuate & a tornado hit where she would have gone. something similar happened to mike's parents.

the area we live in doesn't flood. my town had a huge flood in 98 & our house was fine.

I always hope for it to lose power. I know people all along the coast so there isn't anywhere better for it to go.

my family is prepared. we've been through many hurricanes. we still get nervous though.

Martha - I am glad to hear that you won't be getting the worst of it anymore, but I do feel bad for those who will be getting it.

 

Morgan - That really sucks that it is heading straight for your family, but I am glad to hear that they are ready for it. My thoughts are with everyone that will be affected by the hurricane. Lets hope it loses strength and doesn't cause very much damage. Everyone keep us posted on how you and your families are doing!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
