Mothers Day at the Volcano

Today I went to the Poas volcano. It only emits sulfurous gases, no lava. The area was pretty, but it was super foggy, and the crater (the second largest in the world) could not be seen. However, there was a cool secondary crater that was smaller and had a lake that I took I put at top.
I went to another town and saw an all Iron church. That was pretty neat.

I went to an artisan town and saw all those carts that Costa Rica is famous for. I even saw the biggest cart in the world. Apparently, people used to bring goods like produce and coffee beans to market in the carts. However, the people got their carts mixed up so they started painting them. Then the painting became more and more elaborate. Eventually, the farmers traded the oxen drawn carts for more advanced means and the beautifully painted carts remained as a souvenir and national icon.

The other fotos are of a butterfly house I went to, an amazing lunch (it was served on a wooden platter with a big banana leaf instead of disposable paper. It was chicken, fried/sweetened plantains, that delicious salad, vegetables, and a fudge coconut thing. Plus fresh fruit juice) I had, and the nice ladies that served it to me.
