Thinking of going to Oaxaca in April.  I'm not into really hot
uncomfortable weather, I see April has an average high of 90F.  How is the
weather in April?

Next winter I'm thinking of taking 6 months off and staying in one of these
cities.Which one would you recommend?  Any recommendations for descent
longer term accommodations?  I'm not looking for anything fancy like on the
beach or ocean view, just clean and safe.

Go to Costa Rica.  Buy Frommer's Guide to Costa Rica or do a search.  You'll
be very safe, if you aren't stupid.

Should a traveler from the Nueva Laredo (at the Texas border)  into interior
Mexico anticipate problems during Semana Santa?  Are buses during Easter
Week and the week afterward likely to fill up, or run at irregular
schedules?  Thanks in advance.

Are the resort hotel restaurants/facilities open to the public?   Like, if I
want to swim in the big pool, can I just walk right up?  What if I want to
eat in the restaurants?
