35.000 Bulbs Light
Hospital de Niños
Christmas Tree
Last night the annual
tradition of lighting
the Christmas tree in
front of the Hospital de
Niños took place,
bringing a smile to the
faces of the children in
hospital, some who are
able to walk up close,
while others looked on
from their hospital room
window.
This is the 43rd annual
lighting of the
Christmas tree. The
current gigantic tree
that needed 35.000 light
bulds to illuminate was
planted 16 years ago, so
that the hospital could
have its very own tree.
For many years before, a
tree was brought in from
Coronado.
The event was filled
with music, lights and
clowns and forms part of
the Christmas season
activities in San José.
