Sunday July 20, 2014
Today there was some kind of multi-country festival like last year, featuring Ecuador, Peru, Chile and Colombia, with food and entertainment.   For some reason Venezuela was not part of the celebration this year so I never saw my buddy Jesus.
There were many booths of food but frankly the food is generally not something North Americans enjoy, much too bland and tasteless, very little meat and lots of rice.
The dance groups were fun to watch and I knew most of the gringos wandering around Parque Paraiso.
I met Ed, my buddy from Montreal, there but we left after a couple of hours and came back here to watch a couple of movies.
NOTE that you may click on any photo for an ENLARGED VIEW.
Hope you enjoy the photos.  That was the day's excitement,   Cheers, Al  
This spray-paint artist is mesmerizing to watch

This guy was making huge bubbles with a rope

This was 1/2 of the food booths

Families came out in blustery weather

Colombian food vendors

They had folks to try to steer you to their booths

This was one of the many folk dances performed today

Breathtaking movements

Beautiful smiles

Totally captivating

This little tyke was enjoying the show

This gal was with an Ecuadorian group from saraguro

This Colombian group put on a pleasing show.

Even these superheroes performed....
