Day 1 – Arrival to Costa Rica (No. 2)

Today our global glimpsers finally arrived in Costa Rica!!!! With a lot of energy, we welcomed them to the country and headed for a nice lunch at a local restaurant. They all loved the rice, beans, chicken, and cannelloni we had!

We headed to the base house and gave them some clear instructions during our Welcome and Accommodation seminar about some guidelines to make this trip fun and safe for all!!!

All glimpsers had great energy even after a long day of traveling! We had dinner and our first nightly meeting! Afterward, they all went to bed to rest for our official FIRST FULL DAY in Costa Rica!!!

We are very excited to have them here!!!!!

Stay posted for our next activities.
