Costa Rica National Soccer Stadium

I recently visited the amazing country of Costa Rica and took some pictures of the new national soccer stadium (Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica). The Chinese financed and built Central America's first major sport and event arena. Of course The Ticos are coming off an impressive showing at the World Cup in Brazil and the nation loves their football team. The stadium is located in the capital San Jose in La Sabana Metropolitan Park.

Baseball Exhibit at National Museum of American Jewish History


I recently visited the wonderful National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia and saw the exhibit "Chasing Dreams: Baseball and Becoming American." I highly recommend this exhibit if you are a baseball fan because it not only highlights Jewish achievements in the game but also the progress made in making the game more diverse and inclusive.
