So, I made it. And in one piece, no less. The air travel was relatively inoccuous and I even got an exit row seat to myself...booyah. Ina, Elena, Laura and I found eachother and went through customs and immigration and found the bus driver, Ronald, easily. I also met Brittany from Colorodo, Jasmine from New York, Lauren from Texas, and Caitlyn from Jersey, who came from another flight. Two girls are already in the house...Phuong who is going to Wharton next year (!!) and Katie from Alaska. They have both been really helpful so far in helping us get our bearings. There are some guys and another girl here, but they went out of town this weekend. Lauren, who is here in San Carlos for her third helping of CCS, is my roommate, until the next group comes in two weeks. Our orientation will be tomorrow and we will get a tour of the city. Then we jump right in to our placements Monday!
It is raining right now and is pretty humid, but the drive from San Jose was pretty and we saw the Volcano Arenal from a distance...it was majestic. It took about two hours. The house is freaking cute - charming even - and the staff are friendly.
I will try and get some pictures up of the house tomorrow, but it will be a pretty busy day!
Adios!

We're glad you made it safely there, and that you like your accommodations. Get used to the humidity. Richmond will seem like the mountains when you get home. I love you.
Glad you got in safely! Sounds pretty amazing already! Have a good first day on Monday!
