La Entrada Folklorica Universitaria


The last week of July every year, the Universities in the area put on a parade. Each school performs music and dancing in elaborate costumes that represent dances and cultures in Bolivia. Its the first parade I've been to where I've had to pay for a seat, but it was worth it. The costumes were amazing and the music and dances were fun. Max was sitting in the stroller in the street and was right in the action. Here are some of my favorite pics we took.





After watching the parade we saw this adorable little boy playing the charango trying to earn a little money. He had quite the crowd watching. One man went and bought him an ice cream cone and as soon as he saw that he packed up his stuff and dug in.
