Felt a bit cultural so went to a museum in the city centre. That was kind of interesting. The museum was established by the national bank who wanted to preserve history and stuff, so made this glorious fancy-pants museum underground. It's possibly sad that I found the history of the museum and its construction the most interesting part.
On my way in I found what I thought was a congregation of the San José Mayo Supporters Club.
Turns out it was just some political candidate's thing to rouse public support or whatever. Pffft.... I like my story better.
In the museum, I took a picture of boobs:

Came back to the hostel and splashed about the pool for the first time. I've not been in a swimming pool in about five years, so this was a big deal for me. Apparently I looked so happy. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it!
Julie-Anne from the logistics team arrived, and Keiner and Blue from the Raleigh International in-country team arrived. We sat by the pool we drank, we went for dinner we came back to find Chris from the logistics team waiting for us, and now it's time for bed.
Pretty boring day compared to others really.
Now that there's more people here though, it's been interesting to find out what's brought people here, not just in the sense of "I have to write profiles about people", but because I'm quite clear about what led me here, so I find it interesting to hear other people's stories and motivations.
I've also learned that once you book a hostel dorm for people, you are their Dad.
We've to be out of this hostel for the bus to Fieldbase at 6am. Things are about to get very hectic, so I'm not sure how much time I'll have for personal blogging.
You'll hear from me when you hear from me!
