Well this stage is over. Decided that since it was nearing 2 month's since the interview and still no word, I figgured I'd get a ticket to Costa Rica to see my wife for a week. Well, 10 minutes after we got to the house she got a call from the embassy. They said her visa was ready and that we could pick it up the next day. So of course we went to San Jose the next day. When we returned to Jaco I saw that there were seats available on the same two planes I was returning home on and the price wasn't bad for a one-way. Bought it for her.

Went to the airport yesterday and arrived about 3 hours early, which was a good thing. Turns out our flight was delayed an hour but they had space available on a flight leaving in a half hour, perfect. We took the early flight, which was a good move. Got to miami and sat on the tarmack waiting for a gate for nearly 40 minutes. Then went through immigration and they took us to the immigrant processing room. I was able to go with her. It was painless but took about an hour and a half. Then she was in. Then some quick nasty airport eats and on to the gate for our Baltimore flight.

Turns out we were lucky arriving at the airport early enough to be put on an earlier flight because if not we would have never made our connection to BWI on the original 2 1/2 hour layover. Of course with even less time with the delay.
