Founts: of water and of knowledge.

Well, the title actually says it all. Today I went swimming in a spring-fed pool and had class. Since I am a lucky duck and don't have classes on Monday mornings (or during the day for that matter), I got to go swimming with a great group of people at this place called Ojo de Agua. This is a place with sports fields, assorted courts for tennis and basketball, as well as pools everywhere along with a lake. The cool thing is that it is all fed by a natural spring. That also, means that it is super cold; which can be nice when you are in a tropical climate. We were able to take public buses there (which means it costs less that 3 dollars to get there and only about 2 to get in) and the place was empty because it was a weekday. Truly a relaxing experience there. Afterwards, I returned home and began to prepare myself for my first class with Ticos. My impression of the class: hopefully I will get the swing of things. Pura vida. Time to work hard this week before heading off to Arenal for the weekend.
