Palmares!!!!
Palmares is a town near San Ramon. Starting in December there are about 5 "carnivals", they're all over C.R. but the same people put them on. Palmares was the second one and I went last night. I was so scared driving there because everyone drives super wreckless.
They're about a week long and absolutely everyone goes. I saw "clowns" but they didn't look like those scary clowns we have. They were people who had a giant fake person on top of them. They had characters like Kiss members and animals. The crowd was huge , which is usually scary because of drunk people and fights but Costa Ricans are very different and they don't act out like people do in the US. I got there at about 11 last night and there was a parade. They had all these crazy outfits and dancers and drum sessions. Palmares is about an hour away so we're going again today. It's not as hot inland so today will be so nice.
Next carnival is in Puntarenas on the beach!
C.R. laws?
Peeing in public isn't a crime unless you're being rude and do it infront of a ton of people.
As long as the driver isn't drinking, the passengers can do whatever.
Open containers? sure
Prostitution? why yes you can.
Being drunk in public? absolutely.
So why are the festivals is the US so much more crazy and gross?
