Give me back my Plantains!!!

Trying new things is one of the greatest benefits of travel. One of the saddest things about travel is trying something that you know you will never get at home and becoming addicted to it. When I went to India I developed an addiction to Masala Dosa. Masala Dosa is a South Indian breakfast food that is just heavenly. This trip I am addicted to a great Costa Rican breakfast food (why I develop these foriegn breakfast food addictions I don't know) of Fried Plaintains. Plantains are like bananas and they fry them up (in what I don't know and don't care) and they are FABULOUS. The hotel breakfast spread has had them every day since I have been here EXCEPT for the last two days!!! I have been eating whole platefuls of them... perhaps there is now a Plantain shortage in Costa Rica because of me. I want them back. Please Marriot... bring back my Fried Plantains... or if you can't do that I will take Masala Dosa...

Tomorrow I am off on a cruise to Isla Tortuga (or Turtle Island in english)... for fun in the sun and some snorkeling. Later.
