Awesome you, Katie--Hola,Hola It is absolutely fantastic the things that you are learning and doing.We
love the photo-- it is a clear rejoice- rejoice! and then again it looks like you are doing a swan-dive. I want to hear more (when you are home) about the mangroves and hawksbill turtles. You write very exciting news about the people and life and you tell stories that are fun and happy. I am going to get info' for a vacation to COSTA RICA.However, for now, grandpa and I will be going to the gorge! We look forward to seeing you
soon. I am planting some more parsley in my herb garden--it is fun to have so many yummy herbs for all our food and dishes. Grandpa is making salmon for dinner tonight so I will go help him.

So happy to hear of your adventures! Hi KT,
It sounds like you're having an amazing time already! I'm glad to hear you're surrounded by good people. It's exellent you're in the intermediate level of Spanish! I'm sure you'll be nearly fluent by the time you're home. Giant avocados! Wow! Please take a picture to share with us when you get home. We had Kelly and Marc's kids over to dinner Friday night to celebrate grandpa's bday. It was super fun but we missed you a lot! And then we all went to hear Matthew's band on Sunday afternoon at Folklife. I was the designated park-the-car person so by the time I arrived, I missed the band. Next time...
Oh guess what? We bought a new house too!! Near Christ the King by Carkeek Park. It's lovely and we can't wait to move in August. And C is excited to start at CTK in the fall. Can't wait to hear about your adventures with the turtles!!! Much love. S, B, C and M
I leave May 25th to spend five weeks in costa rica this summer! The first week will consist of spanish lessons in the capital San Jose with a salsa class and a cooking class as well. Then a seven hour drive to Puerto Jimenez where I will be for two weeks volunteering with sea turtle conservation. Then traveling around the country for two weeks going on exciting adventures! I will be back on June 29th... full info
