Sorry for the late blog post, this new hotel requires a hotel Internet account. Yesterday we transferred two hours to Jaco Beach. About a half hour from Jaco, we went zip lining. Everyone in OYO and every chaperone decided to go on the zip line. We actually did what is called “Tranopy”, a combination between tram and canopy. After we were in our harnesses, we boarded a metal tram. On the tram we saw all the plants, bugs, animals, and birds the rainforest had to offer. When our beautiful ride was over, we crossed a small metal bridge, and began zip lining. This was one of the safest zip lines in the country. We were attached to two cables, not one, and wore helmets, and gloves. We were hooked up each time, (there were ten zip lines), and we put our feet up and went. The feeling in the air was amazing, with wind cooling you down in the warm, humid climate. After, we went to our hotel for a night of sleep. Today, we went to breakfast and took a van to the White Beach. The beach was beautiful, and very warm. We swam and relaxed. We are currently getting ready for our final concert tonight.

We had our concert, it was at a beautiful church. It went well, but we we’re sad that it was the last concert.

  1. Hi Leo,
    It's Joanna's mom again! Just want to say we are enjoying your blog. It must be hard to post when you sound so busy! But we parents thank you. I am glad I did not know about the zip lining until AFTER you did it...I would have been worried. Happy to hear you had fun. Can't wait to see you all tomorrow night at the airport and hear even more about your adventures! Take care and have a safe flight and a great last couple of days!
