Field Trip 1 is dedicated to the theme "Water and Energy". We traveled from northern to southern Costa Rica, along the Pacific slope, to explore alternative energies and aquatic ecosystems. Day 1 delivered partly sunny skies, brimming with a lot of energy and excitement.
FIeld of dreams: Wind farms dot the landscape of northern Costa Rica.
Then came day 2 and 3, and energy and water came to life.
