Tinkus

This is the first picture I have of my host mom with me and a friend of mine who danced with me in the parade. She is holding a doll of some `saint` that I don`t quite understand the catholic meaning for, but most parades and parties have underlying religious backgrounds/blessings.

Two girls waiting in the school before we left for the parade.
Two weekend ago, I danced in the ¨Entrada Estudiantil¨ and got some good pics, so here are a few. It was a ton of fun, especially since I was in my site and knew a majority of the participants and by-standers. I am also including a picture of an adorable little girl in a community outside of a fellow volunteer`s site where I went this weekend. It was argueably the most remote place I`ve ever been and an absolutely beautiful experience. Well, technical ease is once again not in my favor, so I am not going to load more or try to flip any pictures, since this computer doesn`t want to. Anyways! Enjoy, wish I could share more, but it will have to wait.
