Back to Costa Rica (by Phil)

 A few years ago, I would have never imagined that I'd be making my 4th trip to Central America and my 3rd trip to Costa Rica 
 
I was there to support a course put on by the International Society of Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO)
 
I love their honest attempts at spelling my name!
 
The Medaglia Sisters (Karla and Mariamalia)
I met the sisters a few years ago, and they've found a few excuses to bring me back
 
Faculty for the course (Jules Becher, Holland; Maria Gallardo, Costa Rica; Tom Gort, Holland, Me, Utah)
 
The few days I was there were quite busy...but I did have several nice views:
From my morning walk...
 
 
 Costa Rican playground...loved it! 
 
The view from the restaurant on Friday night, overlooking San Jose
 
Food was great! 
 

 
...as was the dancing...
 
and the music
 
being recognized as a speaker with Karla 
 
breathing a sigh of relief at the end of the course with Tom and Mariamalia

Can't wait for another excuse to go back!
