Here festivals are an important part of creating community and every one participates from the youngest baby to the oldest grandparent. I love that! Hard to resist the joy in the drums and costumes! Not as wild as Rio or Madrid, but very special none the less in a tiny village of 1000 people when everyone you know is taking part or watching! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfmij3TyIkU" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfmij3TyIkU</a rel="nofollow">" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfmij3TyIkU</a></a> BTW, big congrats Lola!

Even as we speak, those crazy Bolivians are still at it. Students from the university just across the plaza from my home are busy getting in some last-minute dance practice before Cochabamba's big parade kicks off tomorrow morning. Me? I'm trying to invoke my inner water balloon warrior. Yay for Carnaval! Even as we speak, those crazy Bolivians are still at it.
