Hello fellow parents in the United States,
We come to you with a message from the children of Costa Rica.
Today we were served eggs, rice, and beans for breakfast and after that we loaded up the vans to travel to our next destination. On the way we stopped at the Mariposario to buy some lovely bracelets made by the local women of Finca La Anita.
Then we stopped in Liberia at the local grocery store to buy a ton of snacks/candy to hold us over for the remainder of the trip.
We then traveled 2 hours west to the dry forest where we have seen one scorpion and an abundance of iguanas. We also have a very nice viewing tower. I know you were all wondering about the juice and yes for lunch we were served peach tea with rice, beans and a side of beef with potatoes.
After lunch we walked to the classroom to learn about the sea turtles. Why you might ask...because we are Sea Turtle watching until past our curfew...2am!
Fun Facts:
Sea Turtles' genders are determined by the temperature at which the eggs are laid in the sand.
There are seven different types of Sea Turtle species
Their eggs are roughly the size and shape of large ping pong/golf balls
