Costa Rica Study Abroad Trip  January - April, 2005 

Photos and Text by  Hannalore Tice &  Nicole Thibodeau



The view from my bed room. Those clouds are, is where the
volcano is, but the clouds are so thick you can't even see the volcano itself!

This is the grounds at the hotel where I saw a Toucan!


The waterfall at the hotel.



Our hotel, and the volcano hidden behind the clouds!




Nicole and the girls she roomed with this weekend.

Another shot of the hotel.



Sunset out the back door on 1/2/05. This is a picture of the back
yard, and Elias, the sons house. Under the roof there is a little
bar, and he parks his cars, and mountain bike. This yard is
completely enclosed by a tall wall, and gate for his car.




Another picture of the back yard.




This is where I took the first two pictures, this is
looking in the house down the hallway where my
room and the computer room is. There house is
very big and very nice!




Hannalore's room and the stairs on the right
lead to my bathroom. My room is so big,  I
am so spoiled.



Hannalor's room.



Hannalor's room.




Nicole in the computer/tv room.




This is a little dinning area, the window behind
the table is Hats's window to in her room. This is
where we eat breakfast and lunch. We eat
dinner in another room.




Another picture of the table.




El Jardin, the back yard. The trees are
fruit trees. Oranges, banannas, and
grapefruit. It is very beautiful. They
said it is the nicest of all the yards!




Picture taken from the back of the yard!




Nicole in her room resting after
seeing the city with Elias all day!




Hannalore on the computer talking to
my Joey! Who I miss VERY much!
Love you baby!




My papa, having a hard time remembering
my name. Being silly put it on his head so he
would not forget it! This was at dinner! We
had a very funny dinner!

 

He says Hannalore over and over!
I have been writing all words I forget
on post-its, so he wanted to do the same!




This is our family, Elias on the left,
Argelis (mama), and Papa...forget
his name at this point!




Group Photo!! I am going nuts with
this camera! LOVE IT!
  



Ellen (spelling) she lives next door,
she is also a student from Sweden.
And of course Nicole!




Elias friends from Canada came over,
so we had a small get together. This is
behind Elians house. On the patio.




The Three Girls!
