A trip to Barva, Heredia - Simposio Internacional de Esculturas
Today was a typical sunny and warm February 22 here in Costa Rica.
My son and I took a short drive to Barva, Heredia to meet with Peter & Milyn Christopher with their new baby Rosalinda - site owners of Central-America-Forum.com.
Milyn, Rosalinda, Peter, Junior y Bill ... Barva, Heredia - Costa Rica
We enjoyed the weather, a band in the park, a lunch of pizza, good conversation and a sculpting exhibition titled "IV Simposio Internacional de Esculturas - Barva 2009" organized by the Asociación Barva Escultórica and sponsored by CREDOMATIC.
U.S. sculptor Vanessa Clarke works on her piece in
Barva, Heredia - Costa Rica.
The live art show featured 10 sculptors from 3 countries; Costa Rica, United States and Cuba. It was a dusty but interesting scene as the artists turned huge white rock boulders into artwork with hammers, chisels and electric grinders.

Hey Stephanie,
There is so much to do and such diversity in the little footprint that is Costa Rica … it is hard to make a general statement of tips for an unknown visitor with and unknown agenda.
I unashamedly advise that your cousin read Costa Rica Blogger being as there is some information for just about anyone visiting Costa Rica.
Other than that, I am most certainly available to answer specific questions!
-Bill
