Sunday was a lot of fun. It started out a little rough since almost everyone was tired from going to the discoteca (dance club) the night before. But after a nap on the bus, we were at a park to go to the waterfalls! After a bit of a hike we were at a waterfall. We took a few pictures, then went in the water. The water was cold, but never more than 3 feet deep. It was a bit difficult to walk because it was rocky and there were lots of rapids, but that did not stop us from exploring a fairly large area. After spending some time at the first waterfall, people started exploring down one part of the river where we found the second waterfall. After a while, tired, wet, and hungry, we hiked back to the bus.
For lunch we stopped at a place that instead of using traditional plates, had a wooden plate with a banana leaf on top of it. None of us had seen that before, I thought it was a neat idea.
After lunch we drove to Grecia to see a church. The church was beautiful. There were several statues, depicting different scenes of Jesus life. After the church we got ice cream cones, then headed back to Heredia.
When we got to Heredia, there were a lot of people celebrating because Heredia won a soccer game. For the rest of the night people were driving through the streets, shouting and honking the horns, proudly wearing their red and gold.
