From Claire

¡Hola Los Estados Unidos! Group 1 has successfully completed our first full day in Costa Rica and we're doing great. We woke up bright and early and had a lovely breakfast of rice, beans, and fruit juice and headed to the bus to go zip lining. Cantey and Caroline lead us through the rain forest as we zip lined across canyons 600 feet in the air. There are no words to describe the experience we got to partake in, and no words to describe the humor of watching Dre conquer his fear of heights. We then headed off to do some cave exploring, crawling through muddy, small, dark spaces- I was the only one to have a panic attack so I'd say our group did pretty well! We then had a great lunch of rice, beans, and fruit juice and headed to the town of La Fortuna to do some shopping. We are currently enjoying a nice dinner of rice, beans, and fruit juice and anticipating our day tomorrow. Stay posted for more of our adventures and we miss you all! And shoutout to ya boy C Heath.
