PHOTOS: Costa Rica’s Festival of Light
Costa Rica’s traditional Festival de la Luz, a holiday parade through the heart of San José, filled the capital with holiday spirit on Saturday. This year’s winner: the float from flour and corn products company Demasa, followed by Kolbi and the National Insurance Institute (INS).
Hard to tell which has higher wattage: this float, or its small rider's smile.
Crowds waited all day in order to snag a front-row view of the parade.
Dragons and tigers and stares.
