Day Five - Dancing in the Rain

Kelly and I definitely seem to be getting into our routine here in Costa Rica. Wake up, shower, breakfast, class, coffee, more class, lunch, read, rain, and the list goes on. It's nice to have our routine, but I am excited to go on some more adventures.

Our activity for today was dance class. One of the coolest parts of CPI is the fact that there are covered areas so that activities can happen no matter the weather. This was especially important today because there was a heavy downpour during our dance class. The class was about an hour long and we got a crash course in three Latin dances - Salsa, Merengue, and Cumbia. I really liked the Cumbia because it was very fast and reminded me a lot of Tae Bo. After class, I was super soaked with sweat - Costa Rica is very humid! - so I ran onto the soccer field and danced some more in the rain. It's a natural shower right?

We have one more day of classes here in Heredia, and then we're off to Volcano Arenal for the weekend. We're supposed to see an active volcano, climb in a waterfall, and swim in some hot springs. Sounds like it should be a pretty good time.
