  6. what to bring • Temperatures will be in the upper 60s on both days. The overnight low for early Friday morning will be in the low 40s. • During the boat ride (Thursday night), the low humidity and closeness to water will make it feel much cooler.

No sandals or open-toed shoes at the Caverns as grounds are slippery and wet.

  7. Mercado and food court • At the Mercado, you may shop if your parents let you, but DO NOT BUY CONFETTI EGGS!! They are messy and cause too many problems. • You have a Spanish assignment at the Mercado. Make sure an adult is around to witness your performance. • At the food court, you are NOT allowed to wander into the mall. Get your food and eat quickly/efficiently.

  8. at the hotel • Stay in your assigned room and do not leave for ANY reason. DO NOT VISIT ANY OTHER ROOMS! Room doors will be taped up at or around 10pm. Broken tape will result in disciplinary action. • Contact Mr. Romero (boys) and Ms. Lee (girls) for emergencies. Room numbers and/or other contact info will be available. • Cells phones OFF by 10pm. Let your parents know to contact you before then.

  9. Natural Bridge Caverns • The tour includes about ¾ mile of walking. The trail is steep and wet—wear comfortable shoes. • Do NOT touch the formations, walls and ceilings. • No food, gum or drinks in the caverns. • Stay on trail and behind the tour guide.
