Farmers' Market in Alajuela

I took the bus into downtown Alajuela and got off near the old train station, where many buses stop before fanning out into the suburbs. It was a sunny November morning, perfect for a brisk stroll through Alajuela's grid of narrow streets. I popped into a small bakery and gobbled down a lemon pastry before heading off for Plaza Ferias, home to the Alajuela Farmers' Market. On the way, I passed by the town's central park and the Alajuela Cathedral, two of my favorite places.
