Me gusto much La Turrialba. Im having a great time here in Costa Rica. My host family is great. Daniel, the older brother, at 11 years old, speaks English very well. He translates when the mom needs to say something she wants me to understand that she is unable to express in very simple spanish. The father in my family is an electrical engineer for the countrys power company. We have a little dog that likes to get into everything. His name is Skippy.
I have been on many adventures since I got here. My first day with the host family, there was a birthday party for a 3 year old girl at our house. That was a bit overwhelming since I spoke no spanish. Tuesday I went to a serpentarium. Yes, it is what is sounds like. A zoo for snakes and there were frogs too. It was actually pretty cool. Then I went to a graduation party for my host moms niece. Today I went canyoning, it involved rapelling down waterfalls, doing a zipline through the forest and walking over a rope bridge. I was a blast. Then, this evening, I just finished a dance class. There was a whole lot of butt shaking going on. I am glad I am going into medicine and not aspiring to become a dancer.
Tomorrow will be another great day. I will be horseback riding through some coffee plantations. It should be pretty neat. I cant wait to share y next round of adventures with you all.
