Just as I'm becoming acustomed to the routine with my host family in Monteverde, I'll move again on Sunday. I can't complain though because my next host family lives in Playa Flamingo - a block or two from the ocean! Both of the families I've stayed with so far are early risers and they go to bed early which works well for me. My host Mom serves me breakfast at 7:00 and here's what I've had so far: Empamadas with beans, eggs and toast, pancakes and today an omlette in a tortilla. Muy bien.
We eat breakfast and dinner with our host families and often eat in a restaruant for lunch. The avocadoes and mangos here are amazing!
Just in case you are wondering, I am doing quite a bit of curriculum work and homework while I'm here - it's not all about beaches and ziplining.
Here are some photos: A few of us getting ready to go ziplining, our group having lucnh at a great restaurant in San Juaqin called Super Snacks, a phot of me and some young women who were staying with my last host family and some of the young family members at the birthday fiesta for their grandmother who turned 80.
Ooooh those breakfasts sound so good. And fresh avocados and mangos - muy bien indeed. Speaking of breakfast, yesterday I had Hippy Hash at the Fleetwood Diner with Kathy Berry. Her new grandson is growing fast.
ReplyDeleteAre you always the tallest person in the group? ;-)
love, Martha
P.S. Today is Rose Williams's internment. I'm hoping there will be a good turn-out.
Hi Martha,
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have breakfast with Kathy Berry and to keep up with her growing grandson!
Thanks for the news, and yes, I'm usually the tallest person in the group, and definitely the tallest in my host families.
xxoo,
