What a strange feeling to receive a new group while my last one is still not out of the country! Usually I say goodbye at the airport knowing that is the end! My Rollins' students just went on a week-end to Guanacaste but they are there with Johnny, a natural guide. Therefore I said goodbye on Friday afternoon after the graduation ceremony.
The next day I went down to Heredia by public bus. The journey went smoothly listening to music, thinking or sleeping. Nando, the CPI driver was waiting for me at the airport and drove me to the Desea, a hostel very near the school.
Sunday at noon at went to the airport to pick my new group up: UNC Greensboro. Their flight was delayed but I waited speaking with Dona Jonle who was there with me. The group got there around 3 and we went to a mall to have lunch. They all went to have or McDonald, or Burger King or KFC... well they will have time to have rice and beans during their 3 weeks in Costa Rica!
We headed directly to Monteverde and arrived there around 8pm. It was time to meet with their host families. Time for me to go back to my flat and enjoy a good night sleep!
