Costa Rica

Shortly after we got back from Memphis, and the exact same day school was supposed to start in January, Cooper left with Alan and Juliette and a class of Baker students for eight days in Costa Rica!

From everything I can tell, they had a fabulous time!  Except for the last two days when Cooper got sick (the college kids had been passing around some virus); Alan had it by the time they got home.

But at least they were sick in sunny warm Costa Rica!
