Hello,
We will be in Dominican Republic at the end of February, and would like to see some of the Carnaval activities. We would like to spend at least one day in La Vega, and one in Santo Domingo, to see a parade. I read that the biggest parades were the last ones, at the end of the month, or 1st week of March. (Sunday, March 2nd???) And also read that there are parades for Independence Day, February 27th (Wednesday)? We are looking for advice, on which of those two days we should spend in La Vega, and which in Santo Domingo? Also, are the parades in Santo Domingo for Independence Day 2/27, and the last Sunday of Carnaval 3/2, very different from each other? and when do the parades begin and finish?
Thanks alot for your help.
Jorge
