#BirdsAbroad: Protecting The Turtles

Related Topics: The Turtles, Costa Rica

Costa Rica is hot! We had our second game of the trip against a local club team, with girls that ranged from 18 years old to 28 year olds. After our 5-0 win, we shared tropical local fruit and conversation with the other team. They were extremely nice and it was a great experience to talk about our different cultures,

After our game, we got a few hours to cool off at the pool. The weather was absolutely amazing and being poolside with your teammates always makes for a fun time.

We then had the opportunity to clean up a local beach that is blocked off to protect sea turtles.
