pre-fall parade photos.

so before the falling incident there was a school parade in santiago. it was pretty entertaining, each grade represented a different country or culture or people or something... this is only a few of the groups. we also had incas wearing something akin to togas, chefs, doctors and nurses....

i'm not exactly sure what they are...madrina could mean godmother or bridesmaid....hmmm. homecoming bride and her bridesmaid? let's hope not since this is a primary school.

the band was almost deafening.


cheerleaders - part of the band of their own classification of people?
seriously defeaning. perhaps drums are the instrument most easily acquired.

los vaqueros y la vaca!


los pallazos!

a cat? i don't think it was bigfoot.

this was an equal opportunity parade - even animals had a group.

the tourists - complete with sunglasses and hats.

the dancing italians.
