Hello all!
This is my third day in Costa Rica and it has been very interesting so far. I am staying in Turrialba with a host family, Dora and Enrique. They are very nice people. They are both excited for me to learn Spanish mainly because they do not speak any English. Dora feeds me way to much dinner but I feel bad not eating it because it is so good.
School is great and I love my teachers and classes. Every other student in the school is from Holland but they speak English and are very nice to me. Yesterday we went to C.A.T.I.E. It is about 50 acres total and has botanical gardens (which I didnt get to but maybe another day) They also grow every type of fruit you can think of. We went on a hike down to the river and it was very beautiful but lots of bugs. Today after class we walked to the waterfalls. It was also very beautiful.
I have taken lots of pictures but I am not sure how to upload them yet. I think I will try tomorrow. Miss you all and I will keep writing so check in.
besos,
Martine

Looking forward to checking your blog for updates.. If you have trouble posting to this blog - try facebook, that is what Lisa had to do from Burma or Vox.. that is a blog site also.
Take care and keep us up to date

Hey Cookie! Remember, you're there to aprende espanol, not habla con los Dutch Boys. (sidenote to Nancy: try babelfish.altavista.com)
Time is flying, wish I could break free from work to come and see you before you head back. Enjoy every minute, and stay out of the river.
luv
yer mom
