8th Day in Costa Rica


Today we sadly had to say goodbye to our amazing mentors and scientific teachers. awww




We also had the chance to cool off after our service projects in a nearby stream.



Thank you to Dr. Pinto, Ibrahim, Alan, Silver, and everyone who made this experience memorable!

For our last day at Finca La Anita, we started with an amazing breakfast soon followed by the final presentations of our projects. The projects ranged from butterfly killing, to cane toad poison, to pH's affect on ants. Everyone's projects were unique and amazing! Good job to everyone! Once that was finished, we ate lunch and headed to the butterfly garden in town to take part in service projects. There, we dug up Piper auritum plants along the road to replant around the butterfly garden. We also dug a giant hole to help with their compost. After that, we went to cool off and unwind in a nearby stream. Now, we prepare to leave and relocate at Horizontes near the beach! There, we will study the soil pH and look for sea turtles at night.
