Last Day in San Jose
- Comments: No Comments Yet
We´ve been busy – yesterday we went to the Gold and Jade museums, did a walking tour of the city and met several interesting characters. Today we hired a fantastic taxi driver named Jose to take us outside of the city to some sites that are not conveniently accessed by public transit, but are well worth seeing. We went to the Dokas Coffee plantation, Zoo Ave (a zoo that´s full of endangered or injured animals that are being rehabilitated before re-introduction to the wild), and a town famous for it´s arts and crafts called Sarchi where they make beautiful wood and leather furniture, and they´re famous for their painted ox carts – if you can be famous for that.

Well yesterday we had to go to Thunder Bay to get our immunizations up to date for our trip to Central America this summer. The drive up was foggy almost all the way with clear driving on the way back. We tend to expect to see some wild life along the way, but yesterday was a banner day with 3 moose, 1 bear, 2 fox, and lots of birds (thanks for pointing those out Keith).
