Hawaii Preparatory Academy: Costa Rica 2014

Early morning boat then bus to get our crew to San Jose. Brief stops for banana crossings. We had a lunch típico in town. Then we made a quick trip to the mercado with limited success and a visit to the national museum with much greater success -- lovely. Although touring San Jose with students usually takes the form of a cautionary tale, we imagined our students enjoying a visit this historic capital and a trip to the Super. Chino and Davis successfully navigated the streets of San Jose to get us safely to our hotel and then journeyed back to Chilamate, making our long day seem rather short. We all dined together one last time--not including airport club and in flight "meals." Our experience wrapped up with a brief reflection and an important vocabulary lesson (Inglés!). Before we knew it, our journey had come to a close, and we headed to bed accompanied by a symphony of car alarms, airplanes overhead, and a variety of city howlers. O algo por el estilo.
