... alone! So we went back to the clinic and determined that 3 injections of antibiotics should make a huge difference. She reluctantly decided to do it..so I went in with her. I have NEVER seen a needle that big (mom, you should skip this part!) I mean, at least 2 inches long. The nurse stuck it ALL the way into her bum/lower back and I swear I thought I was going to pass out from the pain of just watching. Not only the part about the needle going all the way in, but then ...

... loving and helpful with the younger children. Some of them actually call him “Papa” because he is like a father to them. He has such a gentle nature and he is just an all-around nice young man. He knows quite a bit of English and often helps the tias and I communicate when we cannot understand one another. I learned today that Edgar would like to be a pilot. I immediately thought he would ...

What a busy weekend! <br><br>Friday night my friends and I went to Cavale, the bar we went to for the soccer game - we brought some others from our group there and they really enjoyed it. Some of my friends drink soo much...I don't know how they handle it. I think they each had 8 drinks in 2 hours and then went to two more bars after we left Cavale; whatever...it's their business. Afterwards...I went to sleep early because I had to be up early ...

... to keep our feet dry. The walks though the forest were extremely hot wet and muddy , but an amazing experience to see all the trees fighting for the light, we even saw a tree that walks around to find the best light. The only problem was the wild life didn't mind coming into the room. One night Maja woke me up with " is that your hand on me ?" "err no, don't move I'll turn on the torch". I turn on the torch to see a Huge ...

... desde que pongo página. Pero resulta que Costa Rica tiene el internet aún peor que los demás países de Centroamérica. Pues llevo tres semanas en Costa Rica y pasé dos de ellas con mi madre. Ha sido divertido pero caro. Aquí está una foto de mi madre en uno de los puentes suspendidos del Arenal Observatory Lodge al base del Volcán Arenal. Typical of Costa Rica are these racoons, cute and fuzzy ...

... doctors before the week was out. Amazing, efficient and priced right. I also found a dentist en route and made an appointment to have my teeth cleaned later on THAT day. Within 4 days of arriving I had had all my appointments, tests and cleanings and the grand total for EVERYTHING was $400 US dollars. So much easier when you leave insurance companies out of the mix. But, I needed to stick around for results, and to see if all the skin tags the dermatologist ...

... our driver was waiting in his van. The guy explained that he worked for tips so I gave him $2 for carrying our bags. We were at the Orquideas Inn in 15 minutes (we stayed there last year as well), checked into our room and then headed to the bar for a few Imperials before calling it a night

After breakfast we split into two groups for training. My group started with caterpillar and plant taxonomy, entered data into the database, and learned how to care for the caterpillars in the "zoo." <br><br>After ...

... to the Springs was the highlight of this tour! If you are in the area you MUST take a dip in the thermo springs, feed by the volcano!! There were about 10 different pools with various temperatures, all rather hot, but your body adapts! The foliage around each pool was so dramatic with rich and abundant plants of all types leaning towards you! Unfortunately we did not have lots of time to explore this area, 1 full day. Now we are off to the Cloud Forest!
