Congratulations! You have the world's best coffee (or chai tea)

Woo! We woke up this morning and it had FINALLY stopped raining. I think it's been raining nearly nonstop for about three days. In fact, there was a huge landslide in Escazú (see photo #6 in the WSJ "photos of the day") (about 20-25 minute drive from our house in the suburbs of San Jose) and 20 people died.  Very sad.  One of my colleagues here lost her home, but thankfully, she and her family are safe. ¡Gracias a Dios!


Inspired by the sunny morning, we set out for some breakfast at Bagelmen's, and boy were we in for a treat!  Brian ordered a waffle and a cinnamon roll that was nearly the size of his head. I'm not joking - check it out:

PS: What do you think of the beard? 

I had the world's most amazing té chai (chai tea) - and for those of you who know my obsession with good chai tea lattes, you'll know that I'm serious.  This is the second-best chai tea latte I've ever had in my life.  The very best chai tea latte still remains the chai tea latte at Antique Cafe on W. 26th Street in New York City.  Delish!

On our walk home, we stumbled across this cool design expo with exhibits made from recycled materials like wood, plastic, and glass.  This exhibit was a cylinder suspended by metal cables and made entirely of soda bottle tops! Pretty cool.  

PS: Can anyone name the movie that I'm quoting in the title of this blog post?
