Im finally back on a computer!! So i have had a pretty rough two weeks, but i made i through and right now the group and i are chilling in a little beach/surf town by the name of puerto viejo. But the weather here has been pretty bad because there is a really big tropical storm right on top of us and there was an earth quake in panama causing the ocean to have amazing waves. So we are toughing it out in the rain. The last two weeks have been pretty hard, the turtle project wasnt that great casue it isnt turtle season. I did see a few baby turtles but thats about it. There was also very little food so i survived off of a jar of nutella for the week. After our week of turtles we went to Punta Mona, our supposed yoga retreat but it was actually a perma culture farm where they only eat fruits and vegtables. Which everyone knows how much i like those so i survived on one sandwich and two packetts of soda crackers a day. It has definitly been a really rough two weeks, but we leave for San Jose, Costa Rica tomorrow on the bus. We are planning to be there for three days and then off to Honduras where we are praying for nicer weather. I know this is brief but the rain has let up an i have to run back before the next down pour comes. Hope all is well.xo soph

Hi Sophie wat een geweldige ervaring moet dit alles zijn. Aan je reisschema te zien zit de trip er al weer bijna op. Geniet nog even voordat je weer in de "gewone" wereld stapt.
groetjes Els
Hi Sophie,
You probably heard about the dinner party your parents and the Bogels hosted last week. We had a great time, but I'm getting worried about how to follow up when it's my turn to host. Can't your parents ever just be normal? Jane had a great time at your birthday dinner where you all played the guessing and matching game.
Antigua sounds great. I'll have to look into it. Always looking for some place to go. I don't like hot and steamy weather, though. I got a laugh out or your dietary challenges. If you get to do another study abroad, keep in mind that they eat a lot of meat in Argentina.
Come see us over Christmas vacation.

Ha Sofie als je zo over het eten schrijft dan moet ik altijd denken aan vroeger dat je alleen leefde op melk en perperoni. Dus volgens mij ben je goed getraind om met weinig eten te leven. Geniet nog van je laatste tijd aldaar, groetje Dorien
