Today Papa Chavez took us to Miraflores to see what he called "Caribana", a parade celebrating all of Peru's different cultures and history and products, it was AMAZING!!!! There were different dancers from different parts of the country in their traditional costumes... Papa Chavez knew which people were from which city, it was awesome. We arrived at 4:20pm, the parade started at 3pm, and when we left at 6:15pm the parade was STILL going. Papa Chavez said that it wouldn't end until this evening probably at 8 or 9pm, and then there are fireworks at midnight. Compare that to Canadian parades that only last about half an hour!!! This was INCREDIBLE!
A funny moment came when Miss Peru 2009 came by on her float... Papa Chavez was "woo woooing" to get the attention of people on the floats... he went Woo Wooo! And said, "David, woo woo!" And so I covered David's eyes and Miss Peru saw me cover his eyes... I caught this picture of her laughing and pointing at us!
I'll include some videos to speak for themselves!
Every day, brings a smile. It is wonderful sharing this time with you both. Stay healthy and safe. Love Mom xox
