Daily
Dilemma

|
|
Some
sources have told us that the water in Costa
Rica is safe to drink and others have said
that we should drink bottled water. What should
we do?

Our first taste of Costa Rica!
October
26th 9:30 PM Heredia, Costa Rica
|
We
have been preparing for The Rainforest Project for over
6 months, and I can hardly believe that I am finally
here!
I
could hardly contain my excitement as I peered out the
window of the airplane as we landed. Rolling mist mountains
covered in dense vegetation loomed in all directions.
After collecting my bags and going through customs,
I walked outside and was immersed in warm, humid air.
Pika
was waiting for me and soon we were zipping down narrow
winding roads towards the cabin where I am now waiting
for Frosty and our friend Erik to arrive.
|
It was
great meeting Pika and talking about the things we
will be exploring!

The
number of plants species that take advantage of this
warm, wet climate is astounding!
|
Erik is on
our board of directors and will be joining us for the
first week of the adventure. Their
planes arrive late tonight, and I am sure they will
be ready for a good night's sleep. Although sleeping
so many amazing things right outside our door might
be hard! There is a large waterfall only a short hike
away from our cabin!
It
has been raining and thundering for hours now and every
few minutes the cabin shakes as the thunder rolls over
head. Pika said that it usually rains in the afternoons
and evenings, and that the mornings are usually clear.

Make sure
you help us with our Daily
Dilemma. Some sources have told us that the water in Costa
Rica is safe to drink and others have said that we should drink
bottled water. What should we do?
Keep Exploring!
