I had the privilege of going to the Costa Rican's National Theater in beautiful and historic downtown San Jose this past Saturday night, Feb. 16th. The performance was by one of the countries top dance troupes and they did a traditional Costa Rican dance. One of the teacher's at my language school was also a dancer in the troupe. She has the purple, aqua and pink skirt. Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed the evening and hope to have a chance to return to the theater for another event before I leave.
Costa Rica's beautiful and historic National Theater.
The Costa Rican's are very proud of this building; originally built in the mid 1800's, it was severely damaged in an earthquake in the mid-1900's and completely rebuilt to the original status.
Inside, before the curtain goes up.
Grab your partner dancing.
Dancing, dancing. (Bailando!)
Dancing the night away. The language teacher has her back to you.

Rhonda,
It is so good to see you getting some culure time in. Did you where a dress or some pink when you went to the theater? You know Dana would have been so proud! Your blog is nice. It is good to hear from you, I will have to skype you and catch up. We are still in the states. But, God is good and He is good all the time!
