Today was our first day of school. We were greeted by the upper school students singing the Costa Rican national anthem. Then we watched a traditional dance by the second graders. Some students danced with them. We also enjoyed a traditional Costa Rican breakfast, "gallopinto". It is rice mixed with beans. After breakfast and dancing, all the Cary Academy students received a class assignment. We were asssigned to a seventh grade class, "7B". We went to one class, and then had recess. Then we went to physical education. After that class was over,we ate lunch. After lunch we went to the classroom and sat for three more classes. When school was over we went to the mall. At the mall we walked around with students from St. Gregory's and Cary Academy. We tried on some dresses. Than we saw "La Noche en el Museo:2". It was in English with Spanish subtitles. When the movie was over we called it a night and went home to eat dinner. We washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen, then got ready for bed.
We love Costa Rica already, even though it's only the second night!!
