1. Oh, fun!

My daughter spent just a couple of weeks there during high school. She really liked it. Now remember that Costa Rica is a Latin country. And the males there act a bit...shall we say Latin. Unattended females seem to be fair game. (I'm assuming you are female. :-))

But you should have a great time!

3. Heh heh heh...

I hope so. ;) All the people at my school who have done this experience, have had good encounters. :) I'm just gonna follow in the tradition.

2. You're going to love it there

What part of Costa Rica? I spent 8 days in Tamorindo and loved it (It's in Guanacaste)

:D

[kitkatrose]

4. I'm going to the rainforest for research.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! La Selva research station, I don't know exactly where that is.

5. Here you go

http://adventure-costarica.com/travel/costa_rica_national_parks/la_selva.htm

It's in a National Park that's north of San Jose, so you'll be in Central Costa Rica. Make sure you get to the Pacific Coast - I loved it there

[kitkatrose]

8. I'm certainly going to try to see the sites,

but they have us working for most of the week. I bet I could carve out some time though. I bet it's beautiful.

11. Whatever you do - don't miss Arenal

I did, but only because it was active the week I was in Costa Rica and there were a few deaths. No one would go near there. But it's a beautiful place

7. A friend of mine spent 3 years there

From the photos he brought back, it's paradise on Earth.

Play nice with the other kids! :)

[kitkatrose]

9. I always play nice.

[kitkatrose]

10. Be packed and ready to go on June 6.

I don't have plane tickets yet. The organization is handling all that, since they're paying for it.

12. Fear the Costa Rican Death Snake.

And the pox.

[kitkatrose]

13. I'm gonna get all my shots--

and so is the snake. :evilgrin:

14. Sweet!

Congratulations! :bounce: :party: :bounce: :party::bounce: :party:

[kitkatrose]

16. That's what my dad said.

:D It's from Jun 6-Aug 12, but I'll be working during most of it. :)

[TroubleMan]

15. Damn, you're lucky.....congrats

Make sure to pack some La Banda Gorda and Kinito Mendez cd's.

[kitkatrose]

17. I have no clue who they are, but okay.

:D

[GOPisEvil]

18. There's a DUer that's about to move there next week.

You ought see if you can meet up down there and say hi.

[tjwmason]

19. Did you know

That there is no Costa Rican military. They got rid of them years ago, and have not had any problems since.
