On Monday, we had a challenge day and we walked around the town completing various tasks. First, we went to an art class with Max's host mom. We made bowls and painted ladybugs and flowers, Max's flower was interesting... so he traded with the teacher. On the other hand, Maggie was able to finish not only the bowl but also a rock with a turtle on it- so fun!
Next we went to a dairy farm to milk cows. We all were able to milk about a half a glass of milk, and Tyler even drank his!
After milking, we had a dancing class. We even took a video which will never be seen. Please don't ask when we get back :)
Next was sugar cane pressing. It was imPRESSive. We all drank our freshly made pure cane juice, delicious!
After sugar cane pressing, we made corn tortillas with some of the locals and ate them afterwards. We learned about all the necessary ingredients and the way to shape them.
Finally, we all had a huge awesome dance party with the locals and our host families. We had great food and music.
Today, we all said goodbye to our families in the morning and went to the eco lodge for lunch after a few hours at the school.
We got to go zip lining in Chillamante over the Sarapiqui River and we had a ton of fun. All of us cannot wait to go rafting tomorrow and we are also very tired and going to bed now and Goodnight Buenos noches
