Bienvenidos a Costa Rica!!!


















(L) At the MSP airport ready to go!
(R) Ready to get on the bus in Costa Rica!


After a long and busy day of traveling, we are here in Costa Rica! We were met by our great Travel Manager, Oscar and took a nice bus to our hotel at the Country Inn and Suites. After a quick dinner at the pool, the kids got to check out their rooms (some of which are like small apartments, how awesome!). Tomorrow we'll be up bright and early to work with scientists and animals at a research/rehabilitation center!
