Eco Service & Waterfall




Today we had a full morning and now have some down time in the hotel before we head to Mass at 7pm. We got the readings for Mass printed in English so it should help with the Spanish part of the Mass. We started the morning by visiting the Eco center of Danaus which is a reforested area that has some wildlife and a chance to educate kids on the environment. We spent around 3 hours at the reserve and had the kids do some hands on planting of trees and mixing soil.

This is a great project for student groups but we can also make this part of a Costa Rica family adventure package if you are interested. They got their hands dirty during this community service project a bit but then they had a chance to wash them off in one of Costa Rica's most beautiful waterfalls. We also had what I consider the best lunch in all of Costa Rica which was at an organic farm. Well we are off to Mass and just wanted to say Happy Fathers Day again and hope everyone enjoyed their Sunday because I know we did.

  1. How quickly the time has flown by. Hope the flight back is uneventful and everyone has enjoyed their time in Costa Rica. I would image everyone is exhausted and is ready for a few days of sleeping in. I hope there are some great pictures to share when you get back. Thanks to the adults for watching over the kids.
