Hi all

not sure which section my query sat in, so stuck it here.

Well, anyway, I'm from the UK and was planning to spend 4 months or so travelling around the US/Canada. Being a UK citizen, get a 90 day visa waiver which I was hoping get round by also vising Canada. having looked up the rules, this is a no no . Alternatives are to get a visa (costly and timeconsuming as I want to get out in the next couple of weeks) or alternatively leave the US and re-enter.

Looking at the second option of leaving the US - rules state that going to Canada/Mexico or Carib don't count. Looking at flights and found that flights to Costa Rica seem to be fairly reasonable, and may cost about $80 or so more than the cost of the visa - so I figured I might try and fit in another country for not that much extra cost and at the same time get to spend more time around the US

My questions are:

1) does my idea seem crazy

2) where are there cheap international flights to from within the US.

3) what is Costa Rica like - anyone been there?

Any help greatly appreciated. As I get closer, my feet are getting itchier.

thanks

Naj
