Did they spike Ms. Wilds' coffee?

Desiree Niccoli

I guess there must be something in Costa Rican coffee that makes you go loco because Ms. Wilds was the only one getting out of her seat on the bus to dance and sing in the aisle to a mixed 80's music CD our bus driver put on. It's unfortunate that most of our group doesn't like the 80's...there were some good natured "boos," but we all got a kick out of the performance. Even people in the buses next to us were amused, smiling and shaking their heads like oh-my-gosh-who-spiked-her-drink? Before Ms. Wilds got up to sing and dance we were slumped in our seats, zoning in and out of reality. It's not that we weren't having a great time because this trip has been one of the most, if not the most, memorable thing we have ever done. It's just that after 11 days in a completely different environment than what we are used to (eating rice and beans with every single meal), we were worn out and really beginning to miss home. However, her little 80's concert on the bus livened us up and was exactly what this trip needed to go out with a bang.
