As time is winding down, so are the activities throughout the week! This week has not been very eventful! I had school all week and I taught my normal classess with my Kindergarteners, and after school I would either hang out with the other girls in town or go home and relax! Megan, Sarah, and I went to the beach on Friday, but no sol! It was really cloudy and not really a good day to be at the beach. It was however relaxing, and we got to see some wild horses that decided to stroll down the beach. There were 3 or 4 of them and they were beautiful. They would walk in the water, and then go and try and find food, and then go back to the water! It was really neat to watch!

Saturday was quite an interesting day! For 3/4ths of the day I was in my house just hanging out. It got a little boring because I really did not have anything to do! I went into town with Megan, and the other girls were in town also so we all bumped into eachother! It was the best thing that could have happened that day! We went and hung out at one of our teachers' houses, and then went to get ready for our night out dancing at a place called Blue Tango. This was a pretty neat place and it had only been open for about a month. It was very crowded, but it was still a lot of fun to be at!

Today, Sunday, could quite possibly be my favorite day here in Costa Rica! My family took me to Africa Mia, which is located in Liberia. We took a safari ride and were able to see lots of different African animals. I saw worthogs, ostriches, horses, zebras, giraffes, peacocks, and so much more. I was able to feed the ostriches, deer, zebras, and giraffes. The giraffe literally stuck its head inside of the car to be able to get the celery stick! It was amazing, and I was facinated by how well the giraffe and zebra act around humans! We also took a hike to see a waterfall, which was gorgeous! A lot of the locals were there swimming, and were showing off by jumping off of the waterfall! Although it was a tiring day out in the sun, I had so much fun and I would go back in a heart beat!
