Getting ready for departure

Hello friends and family. This is my first post for the Costa Rica 2023–2024 photo journal. I am Melanie Marks, and I lead the Costa Rica program. I will be creating posts for you to view several times a day, as long as I have Internet connection. I hope you will check the journal regularly and add comments. You see me here eating a red banana, which now has different significance to your students who have studied the history of bananas in Central America. By the way, this red banana is incredible--tastes way better than what we normally get in stores. I look forward to getting out of this cold weather and into the tropical climate.Les mer
