Zip line

Today was the highly anticipated zip line tour.  Unfortunately it was pouring rain.  Students and Ms. Kaneda suited up in their harnesses and helmets for the adventure.  After a safety explanation, they climbed the tower of stairs to clip onto the cable that led them through the canopy tour of 11 platforms.  At first they thought the rain was going to be a problem but in the end they thought it made it more fun and faster. Overall everyone came back soaking wet but super excited from their adventure. (Thanks to Jen Rowan and her GoPro for photos)

After a change of clothes, we boarded the bus for Monteverde.  The roads were rough and windy but our driver Josė negotiated them with ease.  Along the way, we stopped for lunch at a local restaurant. Then it was back on the bumpy road to the hotel in Monteverde.  En route, we saw a a family of howler monkeys climbing a tree.  (Thanks Lindley for the amazing photo)

 

After settling into the hotel and of course accessing wi-fi, we made a brief stop in town for snacks and souvenirs.

Then it was back to the hotel restaurant for dinner.

¡Hasta luego!
