Alpha Five – Horizontes Experimentales

Heading off to Horizontes Experimentales is Alpha 5...

Alpha 5, led by Project Managers, Kirstin, Catalina and Philly, will be the first Raleigh team to work in this fascinating national park in the Guanacaste province, which is largely made up of dry tropical forest. The national park is used as a research area that was set up to study the reforestation of dry tropical forests.

During this expedition, Alpha 5 will be monitoring the growth of the different tree species and maintaining the research plantations as well as building trails for visiting tourist groups who want to find out what it takes to reforest the natural forests of Central America. The group will be camping in the jungle and this is a great opportunity to learn all about the importance of conserving these amazing forests.

    Our dearest Huhu

    We love the superblog! You have to congratulate me on finding it, with my limited hi-tech knowledge. I log onto it several times a day to see what is happening.

    Great to see you on the photo. Sorry to see your cool long hair changed into an army short. Hugo was pronoucing Gege in a serious way these few days, God knows why. He does not know how to mumble Mama yet. Maybe he just wants to annoy me.

    Have fun, work hard, and look forward to seeing more photos of you and your team. Say Hello to all your team members. So exciting to see all of you in action, finally!

    Love and hugs
    Mum

    Hi there, Chris,

    We're all really jealous! Why can't old people do this stuff???
    Also, its been snowing all day so you're definitely in the right place. No kitchen now we're living on microwave meals for the next couple of weeks. Mum has to help with Lucy's maths now you're away so her marks will be a bit lower!!

    Have a great time

    Hey Keekee
    Nice pink pants! Might not wear them into the jungle though, unless you are wanting a personal bug magnet strapped to your butt!
    Looks like you are having a great time and have learnt new skills (like smiling!). Olds and fatboy over on Sat for a visit, off to a posh mountain resort near Swiss/French border. Last week in horror job for J so at least she's happy.
    Keep smiling!

    Bingo, Nichola found the stuff you dropped at SW. Saw you giggling in the crowds, such fun. Try to make friends and talk to the trees that you come across. They all have feelings! Hugo is calling you every day, so annoying really!! Laolao thinks that you gained some weight. We watched the blog every day.

Suspect they may be a little grumpy with lack of sleep! Hope all is going well, the pictures look great. We're getting updates from your mum, and we're looking forward to following your trip!

    Hi Keekee
    Back in Milano en semble after weekend of all action skiing and shopping at Courmayeur, near French and Swiss border.
    The olds went up for a look at Monte Bianco (that's Mont Blanc to you) and Scott gave Frae a ski lesson - marginally better than Joanne!
    Then poor wee Scotty headed back alone to wage slave and the retards (retireds/unemployeds) hit the spa. Unfortunately we're now barred from the town after a dispute over some bubbly!!!
    Fraser is also banned for rolling naked in the snow
    Ronald had a stroke
    Mother's been committed
    So pretty quiet, predominantly

    hoi marvin, Je broer heeft vandaag alles ingepakt. Vrijdag vertrekken we al vroeg naar Oostenrijk. Ik heb er zin in. Met mij gaat het goed. 24 februari direkt na de wintersport nog 1 keer en dan vier ik een dubbel feestje. Ben vandaag nog even met Dion bij Loekie geweest. Hij was natuurlijk benieuwd of we wat van je horen. Ik begrijp dat je aan het einde van de week bezocht wordt en dan hoop ik leuke foto's te zien. Het zal wel erg kicken zijn en in de jungle, lijkt me enorm spannend. Slangen etc. Ik ben er gek op. Je uitslag van Bristol was goed. Dus gefeliciteerd. Nog geen uitslag van den haag.

Hope you are discovering and savouring (not necessarily orally) all the jungle wildlife: how big are the spiders/insects??

All the snow has gone from Portchester but the other day we has so much rain that Gosport was cut off.

    Hoi Marvin. Morgenochtend vertrekken we naar Serfaus. Het weer wordt mooi zoals altijd. Nou het wordt hard werken als je weer in Nederland bent. Het ritje naar Den Haag heeft drie bekeuringen opgeleverd. Een goede start vindt je niet?? Het bedrag is 150 Euro. Nog geen bericht over Den Haag. Vraag Ineke wel even om de post te checken. Ik lees dat jullie naar het strand zijn geweest en veel plezier hebben. En Valentijn wordt ook fun. Heel veel plezier kerel. Ik kijk in Oostenrijk uiteraard op het weblog. Dikke kus marianne.

    Hello Hugo's brother, have you made some friends with the trees there? Do not measure them wrongly, they could be very crosss. We are all well here, it rained yesterday, and the grass all turned green overnight, miraculously. There was a big fire on CCTV building, the scene a bit like September 11 in America. The whole building has to be demolished now. Hugo continues to be a delight, a feisty little fellow with utter free spirit. Granny is off to hospital for a check up this morning. I am taking Hugo to stay with ZX this weekend. Hugo behaved superbly when Granny attended a study group for a whole morning in ZX's Dad home. Uni side, not much news. They are waiting for SAT scores to arrive, I suppose. Cannot wait to see your photos... and we all miss you very much. Cousin Simon sent to you a message and delighted to read the blog too.

    Mick heeft zijn rijbewijs gehaald. Tegen Rianne is de eerste vakantiedag een snowboarder geknald en zij mag niet meer skien ivm blessure schouder. Ted is in volle vaart tegen een restaurant geskied[had hij niet gezien] en heeft een engel boven zijn hoofd gehad.

    Just seen some pictures of Alpha five- looks like you're having fun. Loved the picture of you dressed up for your party. Bet that eye make up was hard to get off-lol!! I hope you had a wonderful time at the beach-very envious. The weather here today was beautiful- spring is in the air, at long last. When you get back to field base it would be lovely to get a text or email-don't forget! I hope you're well and of course we are missing you so, so much. Made my day to see some pictures of your group. Amber is well, dad is fine and everyone sends their love. Will write soon,hope you got the letter I sent. Will leave messsages here for you so you can read them at field base.

    Hey Bella,

    Hope you're enjoying life in the jungle! Must be amazing!

    Here in London I'm just finishing a reading week, with not much work done, but oh well. Mum, Dad and Benny were here for a few days. We went for a Greek meal last night with granny, Amy and Gilli. Strange without you! Beth came too which went well I think. Things are going really well with Beth at the mo', it's really nice. I'm also trying to sort out a few plans for Summer and apply for a few programmes so I can do something interesting. Not sure what I'll end up doing.

    Anyway I hope you're healthy and good, wondering what you're up to.

    Love Sol xxx

    For Lucy Scaramanga:
    Hi Lucy,
    I expect you are back at base now - can't wait to hear from you. Dad and I are going away from Tuesday to Sunday for, hopefully, some warm sun, so if you are able to call try Monday or today! Half term nearly over. Enjoy the changeover - it will be interesting to know what you are doing next. All missing you, love you lots, Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hi Bella, can't wait to hear about the tree planting - left an email for you on yahoo on the off-chance you can get it. Enjoyed your photos. We had a lovely couple of days in Ln and met Sol and Beth (it's been half term) - they seem very happy together. Lots of love from Dad, Mum and Benny.

    Hi Bliss

    Had a great day. Phil organised a surprise B'day party for Tracie today. We went to a chocolate factory and made lots of chocolate goodies! He then booked took us in to a restaurant for a lovely Sunday roast.Amber wanted to buy you some chocolate to send to Costa Rica but we had to explain it wouldn't travel well! Thought that counts! We got your text and are so proud of you for making it through the first phase.
    I can't wait to hear your voice and all the exciting stuff you've been doing. Amber is back at school tomorrow-school run starts again for me-sigh! Missed you loads today as I know you would have loved making the chocolate-your
    dream job-lol!
    As always lots of love and hugs!
    Love Mum,dad& Amber x

    Darling Huhu, Overjoyed to see you in some of the photos and glad that you will be able to read your emails soon. Pls remember to take your passport number and other information to the internet cafe, since I need to book another trip for you and Israel embassy needs all the information. Cannot imagine to see your emails finally. Love, Mum xxxx
