Good news and bad news about Costco. According to Ramon Lara, manager of operations, mgr724@costco.com.mx,  Costco will be open on Easter Sunday. The only two days a year the store is closed is Jan. 1 and Christmas Day. The bad news is that the large building going in behind Liverpool in La Paz is NOT a Costco.   Chris and Jimmy White
