Christmas in Costa Rica
Ok congratulations on your first visit to my country, if you are going to be
in the Capital, San José, what you can do is to go to the Fiestas de Zapote, wich is something similar to a Fair, the only difference is that we have Bull Riding and, also we have what we call, Toros a la Tica, which is a lot of people get inside with the Bull and start running away from it. Then, tipycal food is every where you go, specially our famous Tamales you can get them anywhere and everywhere, they are made from meat, chicken and pork mixed with cornflower, rice and some others spicies, you can drink Aguadulce wich is made of sugar can honey, hot water and some milk if you like it, if not you can drink it without it.But it is very difficult to give you a specific list of thing that you can do over there, that is something that you'll find out once you get there on your own, overrall Costa Rica is a beauty from any point of view. I hope you enjoy your stay in my Linda Costa Rica. "kaighn" wrote in message om... My girlfriend and I will be in Costa Rica over Christmas. Can anyone offer advice on celebrating Christmas in CR as a first-time tourist? Where to be? Interesting places to go to Church to experience Costa Rican Christmas as a visitor? Special events to attend, where to eat? Many thanks. |

It may be worth a mention that Christmas in Costa Rica is a time for family gathering and does not follow the commercial model that we have to endure in North America. Regards. Ken. |
