What a great day

We finished working at the Recycling Center, then visited the School and shared gifts with the kids and ended up the community work by painting the Medical Clinic. All in all a great day. Now our farewell party is coming. 

Working hard at the Recycling Center

We've been doing a lot of work fixing the driveway of the recycling center. 

Costa Rica... So Far

Pura Vida! Life is good here in Costa Rica. We have been living in a Costa Rican village for three nights already. The conditions that we are living in are very different then what I am used to. Fressy, my mom in the villiage, has opened her home to me and has treated me like her own son. I was shocked to see how kind Fressy and every other Costa Rican is. Back in America, it is basically every man for themselves, but here in Costa Rica, every person works together to create a community that is unimaginable by our individualistic society. We have also been working hard to help make the villiage look more visually appealing by painting chairs or by making transportation easier by starting to layer dirt for steps to a recycling center. Costa Rica is very different then America, but sometimes, different is good.
