AH, and for MY FRENCH STUDENTS, DO YOU REMEMBER the movie we saw in French class LE PAPILLON? Well, Costa Rica is the home of many kinds of butterflies, here's just one I found on the web from www.costaricajourneys.com And, for all those of you that love LES OISSEAUX (birds) the ones below are also found in Costa Rica and I am hoping to see many more spieces. If you area interested in either MARIPOSAS (butterflies in Spanish) or PAJAROS (birds in Spanish) let me know what you would like to know. I hope by the end of this trip I will be more knowledgeable about this fantastic forest creatures.



Ah, by the way, did you know that the forest in Spanish is LA SELVA? Now, if we add the RAIN to the forest, as we have learned in Spanish class, the adjective goes after the noun: it would then be LA SELVA LLUVIOSA.


I ask you to keep reading, follow my steps, my intentions from the very beginning have been to EXPLORAR LA SELVA CON USTEDES (explore the forest with you) :)

LA MARIPOSA and LOS PAJAROS are from www.costaricajourneys.com
