photos







Here are some photos of our day. We had language classes in the morning. In the afternoon we went over a suspension bridge over a river to see another part of Orosi. Sidne and Leif did not much like the suspension bridge, or walking in the rain, but we are going to toughen them up yet!

Today I am coming out of the fog of exhaustion caused by two sleepless nights (the night before we left and the night on the airplane). Today is the first day I have not had a nap (or two).


It is definitely the rainy season. It is sunny in the mornings and then it rains around 3:30pm. Although today, the rain started around 1:00pm. Sidne was NOT happy because we were about to go to the swimming pool, but mom and dad were too mean to allow them to swim in thunder and lightening. You can imagine how that went down.


Our Spanish classes started today and I am at the head of my class! The family that runs the language school is awesome. They took us to their coffee farm yesterday. In addition to coffee, they have orange, lime and banana trees. It is a beautiful hillside farm. I will attach photos if I can figure out how.


Even though Orosi is great and the language school is great and Jana has good friends in this town, we are all anxious to get to Miramar and settle into our own home so that you all can come visit us!


I'd better end here so Leif can use the computer. I think he wants to send emails to you all...or play video games. We'll see.


We miss you all very much, even though we've seen some of your faces on Skype. We hope to see more of your faces!
