Saturday a small group of students from the language school went to a resort about an hour outside of San Jose called La Paz Waterfall Gardens. You can go for a day and see all the neat stuff they have. The pictures above were taken there (don't worry, the snakes were in their cages!). It was a wonderful day! This particular place is tropical rainforest and also a cloud forest, hence the misty quality of some pictures and the fact that it's cloudy-looking:).
I had my first lesson with April on Friday. She's another student at the language school and has kindly agreed to give me some help with some contemporary styles of piano playing. I was practicing today and had a lot of fun. I can't wait to put it to use in chapel!
I received my lunchbox (thanks mom!) on Sunday, along with some movies I had forgotten. There was also a little Valentine's surprise inside:). And the best part was I actually got it on Valentine's Day! It was a wonderful gift from home. Thanks Mom and Dad!
Now I must go and do my Spanish homework!
Chao!
