Visit to Jade Museum Today

One of the retired Americans in Atenas organizes trips like this occasionally.
 Today’s trip was to San Jose to visit the famous Jade Museum.

Like the gold museum here it is a museum of Pre-Columbian Culture
 with modern exhibits of not only historic jade pieces but dioramas and
 videos of the pre-Columbian indigenous people here in Costa Rica.
