Boruca

For our most recent free day (yesterday) we had the option of going to Boruca, a small town of indigenous people about 2 hours away from Las Cruces. I obviously lept to the opportunity. When we got there, we heard a talk about the activities of the indigenous Borucans, and learned about their mask-painting and weaving traditions.

We then hiked to a waterfall where we had the most scenic lunch/swim I have ever had.

Sorry this post is so short- I'm literally writing this in the 10 minutes I have before we leave for our next site, which is Cuerici. I won't have any internet there, so you won't hear from me for a little while. Until then!
