5th November
Have now confirmed our flights for January and made the arrangements for the first half of the trip which will see us volunteering on a rainforest project on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. Likely to be a bit of a shock to the system since we will be living in a bunkhouse with 15 or 16 others with limited electricity and only cold water showers. In addition we have just learned that the usual day starts with breakfast at 0430 so that the work can be done before it gets too hot. One of the projects is monitoring Jaguars and this involves a 15 mile beach walk – with daypacks and 5 litres of water. Have been practising on some of our soft sand beaches here but have only got up to 5 miles so far. It’s not quite the same in driving wind and rain and three layers of winter clothes
