San José is the fairly small capital city of Costa Rica. We didn't find too much to do there.
|
San José from the jade museum on the eleventh floor of an insurance company building. |
|
Our hotel provided good security, including artistic rebar protecting this circular tilting window. |
|
There were murals in the hotel stairwell. |
|
Here's a building which hasn't been keeping up its awnings. |
|
Carrion was the name of a major department store downtown. Yet these were pigeons, not vultures. |
|
The gold museum is underneath one of the main squares. Unfortunately soon after we arrived they made us leave because the air conditioning wasn't working, and didn't give us a refund. Here are some decorative pipes outside. |
|
At the base of the pipes is this creative use of springs. |
|
A rundown building. |
|
Our last night in Latin America was the first night for our friend Justin and four of his friends. |
|
Scott. |
|
Ray. |
|
Justin. |
|
Jovino. |
|
Cynthia. |
|
During dinner we heard some electronic sound that we supposed was some video game. It turned out to be this marimba played by two live musicians. |
|
After dinner Justin and his friends drank tequila -- two shots for $1. |
|
We returned to Bakea, a wonderful restaurant, for another one of their dessert assortments. |
