It always seems to be the perfect weather here in Costa Rica. Today the guy we met on the bus, who we later found out is named Carlos, showed us around San Jose. We stopped at the Pueblo Antiguo for today’s fun. This singular theme park gave us an unforgettable experience of color, music and wonderful food. It showed three important aspects of great cultural and historical relevance, recreated in a very realistic setting: the city at the turn of the century, the countryside and the Caribbean coast. Something like magic occurs through the architecture, live folklore dances and songs, carnivals, fireworks, boat rides. We spent the whole day there and it was pure perfection in my eyes. Tomorrow we plan on going to GalerĂ­a Namu, so I better rest up.
