Costa Rica day 0

The first day of the Costa Rica trip is spent traveling. Myself and two other students left Urbana at 2am to get to the airport in Chicago at 6. We made it with plenty of time, so that's was nice. Then it was through security and hanging out in the deserted international terminal until our plane boards.

Hiba and Sharif

George and Erron

Dr. Kanter

Elena bubbly even at 5am

Kris and the long awaited danish


The airport had this weird Jameson promotional booth with really comfortable couches


I found the sunrise
The plane to panama was nice, with lots of inflight movies.

Then we had a short layover in panama. The panama airport was bizarre! Its like a weird cross between a high end mall and black market knock off stores in new york city. Then it was a short flight to Costa Rica. We disembark the plane, go through the maze of customs and baggage and stuff and we get to out hotel.

The hotel. Is. Cool. Its open air, the inside full of plants. There's weird catwalk things between rooms.

The tropical hotel
Its very neat. We get dinner at a restaurant near the hotel. I got amazing garlic sea bass. We go back to the hotel after, I explore the hotel a little and then conk out with a really nice deep sleep.
