San Jose

Here's the only picture I have from San Jose. I met up with Beth from UW at the airport and we took a cab to our hotel in San Jose, Hotel La Amistad. There, we met a few others from our course, grabbed some lunch (the first of many meals with rice and beans), and walked around the city. That night, we had dinner as a big group and headed back to the hotel. The next morning, we all had breakfast (eggs, rice and beans) at the hotel and headed to the OTS headquarters to get ready to leave. The OTS offices are really nice- they were built in the last few years and were designed to be environmentally friendly, with roof drainage systems to water the plants and living parking lots (grass growing in a concrete matrix so water can drain through). We checked all of the gear boxes, had lunch and headed out for Palo Verde.
