Costa Rica 2024 Day 3

Lots of excitement (and wildlife photo ops!) today as we supervised the Young Life campers' Jungle Mud Run, helped them move their luggage onto their busses, cleaned up the cabins that they vacated this morning, poured more concrete, moved a large pile of old wood, washed walls around the camp, and did some more painting. 

We had a fun afternoon swimming in the lake and also enjoyed a few hours of free time in the gym after dinner. It was a great way to end a busy day! 

The younger kids you see in our pictures are the children of La Montaña camp employees. We've so enjoyed getting to know the amazing staff here and playing with their sweet little ones!

Before dinner we walked up the hill to the home of Hortencia, her husband Christian, their two daughters, and their new puppy, Bean. As we took in the view and played wi...
