Day 10 – Final Reflection
Student Trip Blog
Some members of the group woke up at 5 a.m for a hike with one of our program coordinators. It was really pretty, we climbed a tall hill with a very nice clear sky view. The hike was really nice, everyone was bonding and having fun. We saw different kinds of birds and learned about them. It lasted about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
We got back just in time for breakfast where we met with the rest of the group to eat some great pancakes, eggs, fruit & mango juice to get energized for our exciting new adventures planned for the day.
Next, we went to our CAP day where we made cement pavements at the playground, painted MORE fences, raked leafes & scrubbing dust off rocks. This was by far our most laborious day we ended off with lots of paint, cement & dirt on our clothes but still feeling a sense of accomplishment as to what we produced today.
We later then headed back to the house to wash off the hard day of work. We got to call home again!! Talking to our families had made the day better. We then had Dinner with Diego as always. On the menu today was HAMBURGERS! At the end, we ended with a nightly meeting and then free time. Now, we can all finally rest for the big day ahead tomorrow. Goodnight!

Great to see the kids outside and active.
I miss watching World Cup with you, Leo. Watching Spain v Belgium, just after halftime, 1-1. Is Spain your favorite? My favorite for the title, France, won yesterday against Morocco (2-0). For us Africans, France is also the default team once the last African team gets knocked out LOL. There’s only one South American country left, Argentina. Who do Costa Ricans support? Because of what was considered suspect refereeing in Argentina’s game against Egypt, it seems the whole world is rooting against Argentina!
They play Sunday. And tomorrow England vs Norway. You know I always root against England. There is a lot of history there. Enjoy the rest of the trip! We look forward to welcoming you back Sunday! Dad.
