Any excuse for a parade...

Today there was a parade, celebrating 78 years of UMSA’s (Universidad Mayor de San Andres) autonomy. Bolivians know how to parade. I took a lot of pictures. The costumes and dancing are incredible, they block off main streets all day and go crazy. This was even better than the parade on the Day of La Paz. The band played the same 12 notes for 3 hours and Alex and I wove our way in and out of the band, attempting to get home before Senora’s lasagna got cold. We almost made it too.
