Hola a padres y amigos,
We all finally have contact! If you want to contact teachers while in Panama, Steve’s number is 6437-5365; Izzy is at 6400.4368, and Nick is at 6601.4954. To make calls to Panama from the US, just add 011.507 to the beginning of any number.
In Costa Rica, you can get in touch Amber at 8891.1638, Chesapeake at 8432.4315, and Awa at 8432.4553.TO call from the US, add 011.506 before dialing the local number. We’ll be getting new numbers when we get to Panama, but feel free to call us here for now!
Here in Costa Rica, we just received word from the folks in Panama that they have landed at ITEC safely (and well before sundown). However, it seems they won’t have internet access for the next couple of days as they get settled in. If anything comes up, we’ll be in contact by phone and can post it here on the blog and email if need be.
In other news, we spend the afternoon exploring the local conventional coffee processing plant, El Beneficio Coopeatenas, and a coffee plant nursery. We’re looking forward to spending our weekend taking a hike to a national park, and participating in the La Fiesta de Sabana Larga-a local weekend-long festival that includes parades, dancing, food, and games.
Stay tuned for photos and comments!
