Semana Santa dates 2008?

Anyone know for sure the exact dates yet? I'm trying to plan a trip and want to avoid that time due to higher lodging costs.
Thanks in advance!

Holy Week begins on 16 March 2008 (Palm Sunday) and ends on 23 March 2008 (Easter Sunday).

I end my 6 weeks in Cartagena on March 13 and return to Medellin. I was planning to spend the whole month of March, but Easter comes early this year.

And imagine, it's the same dates everywhere. I think some of these characters think Semana Santa is a Colombian thing.

John Stark,

You mean it actually has something to do with the church calendar????

And by the way in Cali it's "Parranda Santa."

Who said anything about it being specific to Colombia?
JS, you need to quit looking under every rock for something to criticize. Sheesh, your life must really suck...

'what does it mean, when one of you (colombians) tell another: YOU WERE NOT/ARE NOT. 'COLOMBIAN ENOUGH'?? jejeje..a mixture, I think, of stupidity mixed with a false sense of arrogance.. How 'colombian' do you have to be? to be 'colombian enough
