We�re in Semana Santa (Holy week) in Costa Rica and it indeed lasts a whole week.

San Jose totally shuts down. Everyone goes to the beach and/or have family and religious plans. The Catholic faith totally dominates the population here.

Liquor of any kind can�t be sold after midnight last night until next Monday. This includes bars, casinos, stores, restaurants�todos. Everything is closed; the streets are empty.

Their commitment to their faith is extraordinary and most admirable.

Many businesses have been closed all week. We even shut down operations today at two o�clock and will not continue until next Tuesday.

Nowadays Costa Rica is becoming a fairly diverse population with all the foreigners moving here to retire, work, invest, enjoy paradise, the strength of the dollar, etc.

But I heard not one single complaint about the traditions�only admiration and respect.

Happy Semana Santa

I used to think that cartoon was funny, but after the most recent South Park episode no Easter Bunny jokes will ever be able to compete.
