Sorry no new photos for a couple of days. As you read in the blog, we were living on the side of a volcano (Rincon de la Viaja--check it out on Google) last night. Some of the kids were somewhat surprised by no internet access there.
As you can imagine, this trip has included LOTS of firsts for our group--for some it included the first time to the ocean, first horseback riding, first getting stung by a wasp :-), first seeing monkeys in the wild, first time to do authentic field research....I couldn't believe when I heard yesterday that NONE of them had ever gone swimming in a hot springs on the side of a volcano in the middle of the jungle (doesn't everybody do that?) :-) -- what an UNBELIEVABLE experience! I know they are all excited to share their experiences with you when they return. When you see the photos, you'll realize you've provided an unbelievable experience for your kids.
The kids are doing incredibly well with being flexible in schedules, dining times, getting along, etc. What a great group of kids and what a travel experience for all of us. Thanks for sharing them with us for the week!
New photos are uploading right now and should be available very soon--I believe I'll have to add another album soon--I just received a warning that I can only publish 500 photos in one album! Yikes! I'll let you know the link when I create it (probably tomorrow).

Fantastic photos for sure! What a gift - to have you as a teacher and leader for our students! They will remember this always, THANK YOU!
Dr. Wood, you really have the eyes of both a photographer and a naturalist! Thank you so much!
Everyone's said it, but it probably can't be said enough. Thank you and to the team that is exposing our kids to these experiences, and taking such good care of them.
