Day 2

Saturday Feb 27, 2010

Last night we saw a dance performance... original dances from Costa Rica.
The music was a little loud, but it was good.  When we got here we saw a
huge hotel with it's own mini-mart.  It's so hot here there are no doors in
many of the rooms, the ceilings are huge, like 4-5 doors tall in the lobby.
The first day we were here, there was scuba equipment in the pool and I
tried it.  I really liked it so I'm getting my junior dive certification.  I
learned all the hand signals for diving and how to clear my mask
underwater.  I learned how to buddy breath and how to make rings of bubbles
on the bottom of the pool. On Monday I will do my first dive in the
ocean--kinda cool, a little scary.  Yesterday I wanted to boogey board, but
we got there too late, and today they closed the beach to swimming because
there was a Tsunami off the coast of Chile.  A Tsunami is a huge wave, over
50 feet tall that was made by an earthquake underwater.  Hopefully I'll get
to go in tomorrow.
