This weekend I went to San Jose with some people from Bagaces. Originally we were planning to go to el Classico, which is a soccer game between the two main teams, Saprissa and La Liga. However, even though it was only a regular season game it was sold out, and the scalper prices were really high. So instead we watched the game at a bar nearby. Saprissa won 3-0 and after the game San Jose was full of people celebrating and honking horns and a few sad looking people in La Liga uniforms. And all this just for a regular season game that didn't really matter!

We also explored San Jose and went to some of the museums. There was a Gold museum that had many different gold relics and other historical artifacts from Costa Rica and explained the Pre-Colombian history of Costa Rica. There was also a art exhibit and a Costa Rican money museum that were quite interesting.
