The Manana Prospect

Forget the Footie – Lets have a fiest!

 

Did I say I was going to the football?? I lied!

What a party on Saturday ……..the drummers were drumming, the dancers dancing, the Queens well, they were being regal, and then there were others of dubious gender!

 

I left at about four (de la madrugada) in the morning…getting the impression the party was just warming up.
 

But hey, does anyone know what its all about? The carnival has been going on for as long as anyone can remember, and appears to be a party for no particular reason. It must celebrate some significant event?

I understand the ultimate night, which closes proceedings, involves a Sardine, but I missed out on that as my old bones just said no.

 

Anyway, hope you like the pics, talk again soon,

 

Don’t forget the sun cream.
