Great Start To The First Day

Today was a great start to what looks to be a tremendous trip. We boarded our flight from Louisville to Charlotte and then from there to Liberia, Costa Rica. When we arrived in Liberia, we were greeted by hot weather about 20 degrees hotter than Louisville. We stopped at our first restaurant in Liberia off the busy street with lunch options of fish, steak, and chicken. We were able to enjoy the lunch with the hot weather, until we finished and it started to pour rain. It rained constantly throughout our bus ride to Finca La Anita, but we were able to see houses, animals, and rivers along the way which made the experience even better. We arrived at the beautiful Finca La Anita, where the boys and I settled into our rooms and adjusted to our nice rooms with wooden bunk beds. We then met Pablo and Ana who gave us the do's and don't's around here. After that, we were able to try on our boots which we will be using the rest of the week. Then, we wrapped up the day by eating the local food of bass, potatoes, carrots, and salad for dinner. Overall, it was the perfect way to start our trip here and we are excited of what is to come.
