Day 2...unexpected adventures

We were scheduled to arrive in Costa Rica late last night, but heavy fog and an over-worked crew required us to land in Panama to spend part of the night. We finally got checked into a nice hotel in the center of Panama City at about 3:30 am. We got a few hours of sleep, had a nice breakfast and got transferred to the airport. Our flight is scheduled to leave at 1 and our itinerary has changed to allow us to meet our host families and get some much needed rest for today. Everyone is doing very well (honestly!) and has remained positive throughout this adventure. No one ever imagined we'd get to travel to 2 countries. Panama City is beautiful...we saw amazing buildings and the ocean. We will continue to update when possible.
