Cartago and Orosi Valley

We had one night in Cartago which is famous for its basilica. It wasn’t the prettiest of towns and once we’d done the basilica photo thing and checked out all sorts of religious souvenirs it was time for another town.

That town turned out to be Orosi. It is close to two volcanoes and has thermal pools. It was less built up and in a prettier setting than Cartago, except it was hard to get the pretty photo because of the huge number of power lines everywhere. Orosi also has the oldest church, that has services, in Costa Rica.

My small room.

Check out the elephant towels on the bed. They love their novel towel folding here.

The old church.

The front door of a very classy bar.

Walking in the rain with my spiffy umbrella that Tana is very jealous of.

A photo minus power lines and the sun.
