A report from David Meraz

Today was full of many more experiences than an average teenage kid in Calumet City. Our host mom woke us up to some delicious breakfast. After breakfast, we made our way to our first day of school. Orientation lasted about 2 hours, but after that we enjoyed some frappes at the University cafeteria. During class we took an exam to distinguish levels of Spanish. Once we were placed into our classrooms, we started many activities and games. Today was a simple day at the university, but it sure was very educational.

Hola soy Olivia! Today was a day full of adventures! The day started early with breakfast at the hotel. With so little time and so much to do we headed out bright and early to Manuel Antonio National Park. After a short ride to the park, we separated into two groups and started our guided tours. My group was guided by Diego. Along the way we learned about the types of animals and plants that are in the forest. We were lucking enough to see white faced monkeys, crabs, and two and three fingered sloths. We also had time to spend at the beaches inside the park. A little later in the day, those who chose to go zip-lining had an amazing experience. We went through nine cables and a monkey drop. The monkey drop was was kinda scary in the beginning but definitely worth it. Once we got back to the hotel we had some down time and many of us we spending it at the pool.
