Coffee, coffee, coffee!

Today we left San Jose and drove to Santa Maria de Dota (about a two hour drive).  The scenery was awesome.  The EY team is a great group.  It is really amazing how such a diverse group can come together and work together so well.  Shortly after our arrival we went on a hike through a cloud forest.  A cloud forest is a forest at high altitude that has a lot of moisture from the clouds and warm, moist air moving in from the Pacific Ocean.  Today I also got my first taste of Costa Rican coffee. WOW!  It was so good.  I am not a coffee drinker, but I could not get enough.  In the afternoon we had a strong rain shower.  The building we were in had a tin roof and we could barely hear each other.  The rain reminded me of the thunderstorms we would get when I lived in Virginia Beach.  We are taking a break now before dinner and then we may go to a festival that is happening in town today.
