Culture Day

October 12 was Culture Day here in Costa Rica. That was also Will's birthday, and I found it humorous that this was a day for the school to celebrate yet another holiday. I mean, if you know Will at all, then you know how much he loves these kinds of things! Each class at ILE and at Sojourn had to pick a country to celebrate the different languages and cultures around the world. My class chose Spain, Will's class chose Ecuador, Jack's class chose Peru, and Emma's class chose Japan. We had to wear the colors of the flag and make pictures and food from our chosen country.
We got to celebrate Will's birthday the next day. All he wanted for his birthday was a big steak that was cooked medium (NOT well done!). We decided to go a restaurant called Inka Grill in Curridabat. Since it was pouring down rain, only a few other people were in the whole restaurant, and we got to sit and enjoy the evening. We realized this was the first time just the two of us had been to dinner since we moved here. Inka Grill was wonderful! The food was delicious and Will got him some good meat to eat. Happy Birthday Will!
Here are some pictures from the Culture Day celebration:
