🚒❤️ A Special Visit to GVFD! 🇨🇷🇺🇸

While heading back to the station from a run today, our crew had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful group of visitors from La Fortuna, Costa Rica! 🇨🇷 They were spending a few days traveling around the United States and decided to make Galveston one of their stops!

They stopped by the Galveston Volunteer Fire Department for a tour, and we were so happy to welcome them and show them around our station. 🚒

This visit was extra special because Jenny Lee grew up right here in Galveston and now travels the world and serves with Experience Costa Rica! What a small world & what a fun way to connect two communities from opposite sides of the world! 🌎❤️

We loved getting to spend some time with Jenny and her friends and sharing a little piece of Galveston with them during their visit to the United States!

Thank you for stopping by GVFD! We hope you enjoyed your Galveston day! 🇺🇸🚒🇨🇷
