Yesterday our group took a cultural field trip to the nearby province of Cartago, about an hour drive northeast of San Jose. The drive was beautiful! In the city of Cartago we visited the Basilica de Nuestra Senora de los Angeles. It was sad to see people walking on their knees from the back of the church to the front where the priest was conducting the mass, in hopes of receiving special blessings. Also it was sad to see several people filling their bottles with what they consider to be "Holy Water."
