Cartago-Valle de Orosi

We headed out first thing this morning, destination Cartago.  We weren't disappointed.
 
We visited the beautiful Basilica de Nuestra Senora de los Angeles, the legendary site of La Negrita
We strolled through the gardens within las ruinas de parroquia, the outer walls of the Catholic church built, and then destroyed, and then built, and then destroyed again. 
And then we hopped a bus and ventured on into the Orosi Valley, where we wandered for a bit and ate lunch.  There was a wedding finishing at la iglesia de Orosi as we were arriving, but I was too far away to get a picture right at that moment.
It was a beautiful day, with blue skies and fresh air and good food and great company.

For more pictures, visit the Cartago-Valle de Orosi album I put up on Picasa.

Pura vida.

Enjoyed looking at the pictures. The church was beautiful with the stained glass windows. May is coming quickly!
