Students crossed this bridge to find leaf cutter ant colonies. Bats and other creatures were seen under this bridge.

 Students are extracting the fungus garden from a chamber created by the leaf cutter ants.  Students searched the fungus garden for the queen.  She lives on the top of the garden.

 Leaf cutter ants are bringing leaves from a tree to bring to their colony in order to grow fungus that they will eat.

 Students taking a ride on a tractor to get to a the trail head from which they will embark on the longest two mile hike of their lives. 

The hike ends with a nice cool swim.  Students jumped off a rock into a deep pool of water.  The hike to the river was two miles down a very steep hill.  The way back up the hill was much harder than the way down.  We were all very tired when we arrived back at Finca La Anita.
