Thank God! Should you find yourself in Costa Rica in 2010 you should be able to get your hands on a weekly trip to space. I particularly like the last paragraph to the newspiece from InsideCostaRica.com a beacon of information for the expat community in San Jose and thereabouts.
"Although prices for the flight have not been announced, Rudy Jiménez, vice-president of Terra Nova, suggests that reservations should be made early. Terra Nova will be accepting deposits (amount not set) that will guarantee seats on the first outer space flights."
Perhaps you could combine a trip to the Poas Volcano, Manuel Antonio National Park, surf near the Osa Peninsula and then take a break from it all with the spirits in the sky in Virgin's WhiteNightTwo.
