Here are some pictures of the new sanctuary. These are all from up at the 'farm'. This is where the volunteer cabin is located and some of the other animals.

Scratch that...Can't get any picture to load. The connection is quite good, but no pictures will upload. :-(

As with any place, there are definite pros and cons. I am going to leave out the cons. I doubt it would cause any problems, but just to stay on the safe side...

It really is great though to have all these other volunteers. Last night I went with another volunteer, Gulia, to Coyote Cafe. It is a little cafe with overpriced food and wifi. So we just got drinks and made use of the wifi. We met another volunteer, Chloe, there and we all decided to try out the panaderia/restaurant in Cabuya. I had the best meal. It was called spaghetti cabuya. It consisted of noodles, mushrooms, spinach, avocado, and a white sauce. Delicious. After we ate we went to the Super David because I needed a couple avocados. So fresh and tasty. Just had one of them with my lunch. After we got back to the farm all of us played cards for a while. It was a lot of fun.

A regular day here consists of being down at the sanctuary by 7:45. It makes for a very relaxing morning. I'm usually up by 6 or 6:15. Time for a leisurely breakfast and time to hang out before starting work. We then work until 11. We have to be back by 2. It is a great 3-hour lunch break. We get off again at 5 and have the rest of the day free.

Regularly volunteers work 6 days and then get a day off, but we have to ask for it in advance or Mary won't give it to us. A small group were planning on going to Cabo Blanco tomorrow on their day off and Mary asked if anyone else was going so I just said I would go as well. Haven't really been here a week, but I have been wanting to go visit this beautiful park. Also with a note from Mary, we don't have to pay the $10 entrance fee.
