Joppa Flats Volunteer Trip to Costa Rica
July 2009

Hotel Bougainvillea, 7/11-12 and 7/18

We stayed at this lovely hotel on the first and last nights of the trip. The formal gardens
on the grounds are amazing, and the birds aren't bad either. On the 18th, we set a goal
of 20 species in 20 minutes. No problemo!
