Take a look at this hidden piece of paradise. This happens to be the perfect spot for student trips and also if your interested in a
Costa Rica Family Adventure Trip you can not beat this place.
Not only because it is made of large rock structures but everyone slept great and we had a morning with a 5-Star breakfast, intense hike, and a majestic swim hole where all the kids got to jump off a rock into the pool. During the evening last night Jessie put on a concert with the guitar and all gathered around the campfire. They actually stayed up till around 9 which is very late cave time. The nights are early here and it gets dark quick around 6pm which is pretty normal for a
Costa Rican adventure. Along with early nights comes early morni
ngs. We slept all night, how could you not with the dream machine waterfall (Costa Rica is home to some of the most beautiful
tropical waterfalls) running all night just feet away from your bed. We had a
group of monkeys join us in the trees for breakfast which mean the neighbors like their visitors. After breakfast we made our way to the pools which is a hike straight up and it took around 30 minutes to arrive. At the pools the kids had the chance to swim around and even jump off a rock a few feet high but all did it. We also gathered everyone together and I read the blog comments to them. So for all reading go ahead and comment, say your hello's, and whatever because the kids lightI up and it makes for a great laugh when we read them. We will be eating lunch today and then making our way over
Costa Rica's tallest mountain which will put us round 10,000ft and then we will drop down to to the next hotel which is
Casa Turire Hotel. This happens to be one of my favorite hotels in the country and it is by no means roughing it. It will put us very close to the village that we will be staying in the following day and I think all the kids deserve a treat for a night because they survived living in a cave. Jennifer Roth wants it to be in the blog that
COSTA RICA IS AWESOME and the kids are doing GREAT!!! On behalf of myself and our staff I have to say this group has the ultimate chaperone i
n Jennifer Roth. She is doing an excellent job and just thought everyone should know. Enjoy the pics we will be in the bus for the next four hours and they will probably be asleep. I will do a blog post reading at dinner tonight so I expect to see some comments. If you want to plan this amazing experience for a family vacation then visit our site at start

Tell the soccer girls that's why we teach them to organize their bags in a line - becuase some day you may have to sleep in a cave!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are fantastic, what a great 'classroom'. PS: we feel the same about our wonderful teacher(Jenn) and her support team (Jeff) - you can't keep them, but we can share!
What an awesome experience you guys are having. Wish we were there with you! Thanks so much to Jennifer for organizing this wonderful trip! Emma - your cousin Caroline says "Hello and thank you for the playhouse". She misses you a lot.
ReplyDeleteHEY happy to hear that all is going so well. I am sort of surprised that Allie and Andrea made it all night in the cave!! WAY TO GO!! Florida's great but you missed the Dolphins and Manatee. It sounds like the monkeys count!

To Tom and Mrs. Roth: THANK YOU for offering and organizing this amazing trip! To all the students: Wow...what an awesome adventure! To Drew and Jack: How are those journal entries-en espanol-coming along??!! To everyone: Pura vida!
ReplyDeleteHey, now you are all cave dwellers. Please make sure that Ali B. doesn't pack one of those monkeys in her bag to bring back to CT!Natalie and Ella say hello. Ella really misses you guys! There is an entire wall of pictures she drew for you. Jessie and Jojo watch your parents just in case they want to sit in the back of that tour bus! Love you guys! Mom and Dad, Nat and Ella
ReplyDeleteAwesome pictures!!! Yes, Jennifer is an incredible teacher/leader/chaperone!! Thanks for taking this on and being their fearless leader!!!!
ReplyDeleteTell Allie she was meant to be there as the smoothie shop closed so she is not missing them this year. Sounds like the miracle fruit is a good substitute!!
I am SURE Allie wasn't sleeping on the bus, she was ready to take over in event of any mishaps!!! Can't wait for the next post and pictures!!
Thank you Jennifer and Jeffrey!! You guys are the best! Can you plan another one for the parents!!??
ReplyDeleteMi queridas ninas, Sarita y Annie, me alegro ver que las estan pasando bien. Nos da mucho gusto saber que andan aprendiendo cosas lindas. Besos y abrazos Abwi y Abuelo
