Mis Amigos

It is crazy to think about all of the people you cross paths with in your life.  In the little bit of time we have been in Costa Rica, I feel I have had a chance to get to know several lovely and interesting people.  Each one of these relationships, however short-lived, has taught me a little something.  Sometimes it is something about myself, sometimes it is about some foreign part of the world and sometime about relationships in general. 
I think people need to take more time to talk and enjoy one another without the distractions that come with the fast paced lives that most of us lead.  Chad and I spent all afternoon with a few new friends chatting in a small café in Quepos.  Warm rain poured down all around us as we discussed our pasts, presents and futures.  It was wonderful J
Every Friday, we say goodbye to a few students and every Monday we welcome a few.  This makes Monday mornings exciting for existing students; we stand by and wait for the newbie’s to come through the door wondering what country they are from and if they are friendly or the loner type.  I believe there are three newbie’s coming on Monday, hopefully they are the friendly type!
Tomorrow, we are going white water rafting on the Sevegre River.  I am really excited about this as it is something I have never done before.  I think that water levels are pretty high which means it could be a pretty exciting ride!  I will let you know how it goes.
