Parades, marches and the Presidential "state of the union" address to Congress and the people. Cricket matches are a highlight in Puerto Limón.Fiesta Pattronale Desamparados—Street fair with music, dancing, traditional food and toro a la Tica (bullfights without the bloodshed)
Día de San Isidro Labrador—Escazú and San Isidros all over Costa Rica hold street fairs and parades with music, dancing, traditional food, honoring the patron saint of farmers with blessings of animals and crops.
Fiestas Pattronales San Marcos de Tarrazu, and Coronado—Street fair with music, dancing, traditional food and toro a la Tica (bullfights without the bloodshed)
Could you maybe tell me when these fiestas are held? I'm panning a visit to CostaRica and I would like to be there at the Día de San Isidro Labrador. I have two websites about al these special dates http://quediaes.com and http://quefechaes.com. And It would be very nice if I can take these kind of pictures to put on my website.
