So, as it turns out, you really do pay traffic tickets at the bank here. It’s weird, but relatively straightforward. We got that taken care of fairly quickly this afternoon. It’s too bad that money isn’t being used to build two-lane bridges or sidewalks or something that people could use.
I spent all morning in Zoom meetings interviewing students who are on academic probation and want to come back a semester early. Some of the cases are relatively straightforward. Students who had been doing fine, then had a health crisis or something like that. Other students need to find a different path for their lives. I finished that around 1pm. My colleagues thought my Zoom background was fake. One of them wanted to know if I had birds because she could hear the birds chirping in the background. They all encouraged me not to come home once it became clear that my tropical background was real.
We have to leave for San Jose tomorrow afternoon, but we set up a paddle board/kayaking trip for tomorrow morning. I think that will be fun. We set it up with the dive shop, and they seem to be really good. We are going at 8am so hopefully we will get to see some animals.
Traveling with Emily!
