Holy week in Costa Rica was a treat for the senses. Our first full day in San Jose was Palm Sunday, so our first stop was church: Crowds waving palm fronds and handing them out, and even a pageant:
I didn't think we got to see Jesus...but, is he the guy in the purple? (Sorry! I'm a Jewish girl!)
On Good Friday we rode by (an enactment...I hope!) of the crucifixion. Didn't get a picture...but read about it in the news...

Every home had a crucifix in front of it. During Holy Week, draped in purple, after Easter,
draped in white.
Don't know what this was about...
Jesus is always dressed in white or off-white. On Palm Sunday, he was riding an ass. I'm guessing the baby is just stuck there.
