Well I had my first real adventurous day ayer!! :) Mis amigas y yo fuimos a San Jose solo! It was soooooo much fun! We had to find the right buses and ask for directions and everything all by ourselves! It was quite an experience! We didn't get lost and we met a new friend who was so sweet and wants to practice her English with us while we practice our Spanish! How cool! :) We went back to the hippie market and walked around San Jose and then we ended up eating Peruvian food which was pretty delicious! My friend Lizzy's family is from Peru so she exposed us to something very new! We ate these things called Cancha which is pretty much toasted corn, then for dinner we had Pollo a la brasa con papas y ensalada and Lomo saltado. The first one was chicken roasted with something with fries and salad! It was really good! The second one was meat sauteed with tomatoes and onions and soy sauce I think, mixed with fries and rice! It was interesting, but it was pretty good to! Lizzy ordered this drink called Chicha morada and it is this purple drink made from purple corn! It was the weirdest thing ever, but it tasted pretty good! Then we had Peruvian cookies which were delicious, but I don't remember what they are called! After our lovely dinner we found our way to the train station and took the train back to Heredia for the first time! That was pretty interesting I must say! Overall it was an exciting day! We are supposed to go to a concierto in San Jose tonight, but who knows if we'll go!
