CRC1B - Updates!!
Posted by Chris in : Costa Rica Clasica , trackback
Wow, I can´t believe that our week at spanish school, CPI, has already come and gone! We had a wonderful week in Flamingo doing many activities in the morning and attending Spanish classes in the afternoon. We also all become close with our host families as we have now been with them for six nights! Tomorrow night will be our final night and we are having a party with all the host families, a total of 66 people will be coming together for dinner tomorrow! It should be quite the local rural experience.
This week in the mornings we have been surfing, collecting shells on the beach, playing soccer, visiting an artisan village, making our own pottery, snorkeling, and sailing! What a life 
Every student in our group is improving their Spanish and having a blast. I love them all! I will leave some daily details to our leaders of the day, as they continue to update you on our adventures in Costa Rica!

July 8: Rachel wrote: Today was a beach day at La Conchal. We played in the waves and relaxed. After the beach, we got lunch and went to CPI for classes and games. We ended the day with the group meeting and with a surprise–ice cream! Finally, we went back to our tica families for dinner and good conversation using our Spanish!

July 10: Hannah wrote: Today we woke up early to go snorkeling! We went on a huge boat with a bunch of food and drinks, and we laid on the front of the boat and drank smoothies and relaxed. We went snorkeling, swam around in the water and by the beach. Some of us even got to see sea turtles, sting rays, and eels!
Stay tuned for more updates from our leaders of the day!
Besos,
The AAVE CRC1B Team from the beaches of Flamingo Costa Rica!
