Two weeks, say whaaaaat?!

Herrow derr!!

This weekend has been pretty amazing! On Friday, we went to see Cars 2 at the International Mall.  It was so great! I got some delicious caramel popcorn and a sodie.  The short for the movie was super great! And seeing it in spanish was hilarious. I can’t wait to go home and see it again ;)

On Saturday, we woke up and went to Cartago. There we saw the most BEAUTIFUL church. At the church, a miracle occurred very long ago.  The story was that a little girl was in the woods and found a doll.  She immediately grabbed it and took it home with her in a box, but later when she went to look for it, it was gone.  Later, she went back to the woods and the doll was there again.  She took it home, and the same thing happened.  She decided to try to give it to her priest to see what he thought.  Again it occurred with him.  

After this, it was decided that Mary was appearing to them telling the little girl that she wanted a church built in the woods where she kept appearing (where the church is today).  Pretty cool, huh?  We also got to see this really pretty park there!  It had a gorgeous building around a garden..All  pics below! 

After the church, we went to see the lookout point of Orosi.  It was gorgeous!!  We were on top of a valley! We were taking some fun pics!

On Sunday, we were supposed to have a Fourth of July party at the US Embassy.  Sadly, it was cancelled…but luckily, I have awesome friends here.  We decided to buy food to barbeque at a park in town.  There were only like 6 of us, but it was so great! We had hot dogs and corn on the cob and chips! Then, we went to a café to do homework since our finals are this week.

It’s officially 2 weeks until I am home.  Bittersweet, for sure.  I’m so excited to get home and see you all, but I can’t believe this adventure is almost over! See you all very soon! ;)
