San Jose walk

We enjoyed a great walk around the centre of San Jose with Jampier yesterday afternoon. It was interesting and informative and Jampier was very accommodating, and he was happy discuss a wide range of subjects ranging from architecture to politics. We certainly learnt a lot about the city and the country and we would highly recommend this walk.
