Costa
Rica was our third expedition of the semester. We drove to Atlanta on Thursday
for the airport. WE flew to Costa Rica and landed in San Jose on the same day.
WE were picked up at the airport by Willie and drove to the hostel. We went and
looked around at different shops in the city and there were ice cream shops,
skate shops and a music store. There were tons of construction in San Jose and
razor wire the top of every building. We stayed the night in the
hostel then in the morning we entered the bus and drove to La Fortuna. In La
Fortuna did horse back riding and zip lining. The cabanas we stayed in were
really nice. We were there for three days. We went to the hot springs; the
water slides there were really fast and slick. Horse back riding was a lot of
fun because they let you get on the horse and just follow the tour guide. They
didn’t have many rules for us to follow and that’s why it was tons of fun.
Costa Rica was probably the coolest expedition I’ve been on yet. I’m looking
forward to future expeditions.

I am
spending my third expedition at SOAR in the tropical climate of Costa Rica.
Since flying into San Jose on Thursday, I have had many opportunities to
explore the lifestyle of the country. We have been horseback riding and ziplining
during my time here. We have been staying in very nice cabanas as well.
What’s
unique about this expedition is that it is the first one we have been on since
merging North and South House together. We have had a lot of fun lately and I
have made lots of new friends. We also have two head instructors along with our
normal field instructors. The end of the semester is coming closer and closer.
When we get back to North Carolina, we will have one more expedition before we
go home. I hope all of you have been reading my blogs and I can’t wait to see
everyone in early May.
