Pura Vida!

Hola from day two in Costa Rica.  After discovering there was a time difference in Costa Rica and waking up an hour before we had to, many students embarked on an experience that they'll remember forever. After a short bus ride we reached Titi Canopy and began preparing for an hour and a half of ziplining through the jungles of Costa Rica. Our quote for the day was Pura Vida which means pure/free life because of the adventure and thrill us as students were about to partake in.  Before we began ziplining we saw a sloth who welcomed us to the area.  We then trecked through the forest and glided through the 13 platforms.  As if this wasn't enough adventure, we ended the journey with a 50 foot free fall.  Once this journey was over most of the students met up with the rest of the group to endure on a 3 hour bus ride to our last hotel destination Orquideas Inn.  We are looking forward to spending the night in Alajuela, Costa Rica.  Tomorrow we will be waking up early to go to Obras del Espiritu Santos to brighten the day of under priviledged children.
