ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

MOTHER'S DAY - Driving in San Jose - Plate restrictions suspended for el Día de la Madre - Wednesday August 15

Plate restrictions suspended for el Día de la Madre


August 13, 2012

Those taking Mom out for lunch Wednesday will not have to worry about the last number on the vehicle license plate.

The Policía de Tránsito said that the license plate restrictions will be suspended because Wednesday,  el Día de la Madre, is a national holiday.

Usually restrictions are in place in the metro area from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesdays vehicles with the last digit on the plate of 5 or 6 are prohibited during those hours.

Wednesday is a holiday in which employers must pay their employees and give them the day off. Although the law says that the day may not be swapped for another, many employees agree to take the Friday off instead of the Wednesday.

Those who work Wednesday are supposed to be paid double.
