Reforestation

This morning we went to the reforestation site to plant more trees. Each city in Costa Rica is given land to develop for the community. In La Alegria the land they have reserved for community use is being reforested. It´s a sweaty job, but someone has to do it. So the 10 team member volunteers go out there about 3 times a week to dig drainage ditches and plant trees. They work we are doing in 8 weeks (phase 1 and phase 2) would take the town on its own 2 years to complete. So we are all really excited about making such a huge contribution to the community.

Queque

Today we are off to make this wonderful cake at our Spanish teacher´s home in EARTH University. It is going to be delicious. :) We all joke around about "going back to EARTH." every week...which is such an amazing place.
