Carnivales 2014! Day Two!!!

No one could do Day One two days in a row....  Day two is, just as described, a parade of people in Carnival costumes and of course water balloons, water guns and buckets of water.   Here are my 24 pictures that I hope describe the day.

After the parade we were invited over to Ivonne and Marco's for some water balloon throwing, an amazing lunch, dancing and some karaoke!!  An amazing time was had by all.  I even have a new girl friend....   I think she has 1 1/2 or 2....  Kerry is fine with it.   : )  
Kerry and Mistina ready to go!
Selling plastic for the water...
Ready to throw some balloons, see those buckets?  Those are full and for throwing as well.   How about the water gun?  See the paint on the walls from the day before?  This picture has it all....  And don´t think that mom with the girls isn´t going throw something....  
Selling the water weapons.
Selling stools.. 
Hats anyone?

The police have a large presence at any public party... They got in the way of many of my pictures...

On to the parade....














Carnivales 2014 Day one videos!

It takes a while to upload the videos, I did that while we are at day two festivities and now they are ready to post.  The videos are to give you an idea of what the sounds were like though it is difficult to hear some of the street music that I could hear live from 3 stories high ......   Enjoy.....

None of the video's are very long but they give you a good idea of the insanity that is Carnival on the first day!

They begin with our water ballooning from the roof top and end with the aftermath of when we participated in the parade and the singing outside of people's houses.....











Here there are ten people including the driver taking a taxi to where we will enter the parade.  




It started to rain and we were ready to go.  Though you can see the lady on the corner, she has a bucket of paint.
