Hello from day 1 in CR! Right now we are calling it a night in the beautiful Gran Hotel Costa Rica. So far we've enjoyed our day of travel, and very glad to be here. Apparently the president of Costa Rica was hanging out at the theater across from our hotel and some of the LA kids got a chance to chat with her for a bit. Let's see, so far the early realizations the kids of come to here: 1) I wasn't joking when I talked about no respect for rules of the road, we've seen more red lights run tonight than in the past year back home, 2) as much as I love this country and as much as the rest of the group will, this is the periphery, and so the difference is instantly seen and realized, even in this nicer zone of San Jose, 3) churros are AWESOME (me and the guys sampled some off the street tonight, and good times... So, off to bed for me as tomorrow will be a long one! Cheers til tomorrow.
Glad you'll made it safely. Keep up the posts. Maribel
