Day 8: Back to San Jose



We said good-bye to Mileidy, our host mom in Quepos (actually she's 14 years younger than I am!) and had to drag our suitcases 5 blocks to the Bus stop.



We decided to take a taxi, (That's pronounced "air conditioning") since it had rained most of the night and the humidity was off the charts.






We went to Manuel Antonio to watch Alyssa teach.  It was fun and I got to read to the kindergartners -- in SPANISH!!!  ("Un Dia De Nieve" by Ezra Jack Keats -- actually the Spanish version of "A Snowy Day.")  That was something!!!



The next 6 hours were spent riding in a 10 person van across country from MA back to San Jose.  YAWN.  Didn't take a lot of pictures.  Nothing to report there.

We checked in at Hotel Milvia.  The home stays were okay, great language and cultural experiences, but this Hotel is SO COMFY.  Huge rooms, a bathroom you can land a plane in and the bed is so big I'm afraid I'll become lost.


I'll post pics of the Hotel tomorrow.  I'm too tired and it's too dark right now.  Tomorrow we are going to visit the students In San Jose one more time.  Wednesday - - Day 10 is our travel home day.  I have gifts that made my suitcase SUPER HEAVY.  Also, I need to find a LAUNDRY.
