Hi everyone!! We are safe in Costa Rica - our flights were no problem at all...they even arrived early. It took a few minutes to get through customs and get all of our luggage, but now we are at the hotel, which is very nice. It has a real tropical feel, and right now it is actually pouring down rain. It will be very humid for a while!!
We stopped for dinner at a very busy shopping mall food court where they had typical American food like McDonald's and Pizza Hut, but also some unique Costa Rican food. It was very very busy, and the students were a bit overwhelmed at first because they were in the minority for the first time in their lives. Not many people spoke English either.
Right now we are resting up and are getting ready to go out to the market in downtown San Jose for the evening. Thanks for all your prayers!! The phone card is working, but calls have to be short because we use the lobby phone. I am writing this post on the hotel computer, so I have not uploaded any pictures, but I'll be working on that tonight.
More to come.....
