| Items in the jade museum collection in San Jose |
A choice of menus at breakfast - I chose yogurt parfait with fruit and crunchy cereal, plus fresh orange juice and coffee. We tried to plan our itinerary on Google maps but the coverage is patchy.

We took a taxi to
Edificio Correo, the old post office building, and got more stamps. We discovered that our Maestro cards with chip did not work, also at a second bank, but the Bank of San Jose would be OK when we find it. We visited the
Jade Museum with artefacts from collectors. Had a beer and cheese for lunch.
We took the
city tour with a guide to see the architectural styles of the city, and visit the theatre and the gold museum again. Had dinner at
Restaurant Machu Picchu, within walking distance of our hotel. Good ceviche and pisco sour.
