Monday into Tuesday

Hola! This is Rosie and Krista. After a week in Santa Maria, we've become accustomed to the traditional Costa Rican way of life. Yesterday morning we worked hard to finish painting the handrails and benches so they would be finished today. After we went home for lunch, Pablo held a class discussing leadership styles and communication skills. After that, we had the afternoon off. The boys went to play ultimate frisbee on the field and the girls split up. Some went to play with puppes at Phoebe and Talia's house, and others spent the afternoon with new Tico friends. After that Maya and Eva came over to our house. The "cousins" (our homestay mothers are sisters) watched Bajo La Misma Luna and ate homemade empanadas. We're up early this morning eating fresh fruit and cereal, ready for our final day of work.
