4. “La fiesta que nos une”

The carnival's theme is La fiesta que nos une”, the party that unites us. The adult parade for Carnival moved outside of the city of Merida several years back but they still have the children's parade in town. The make up and the costumes on the children were very colorful. the excitement, the energy, and sometimes the exhaustion were in varying degrees on their faces. My favorite group was the flamingos. The music was SO loud, I turned my hearing aids off and was wishing for ear plugs! 












In the photo below, it is the spectators that drew my eye.



Smiling for her mama.







This little darling sure makes her mama smile!
