Blah-g

So right in front of the high tech CONVITE is a small altar to St. Tomas. Indigenous men in formal traje danced for hours to the sound of drums and flute (barely audible underneath the booming bass of the marimaba and salsa band)
Here is one. The dancers carried the little statue of the horse and rider covered in coins making use of it as if it were an instrument...
REsting...
And candles..... Lots of candles.. It was a cold night and I was underclothed. I stood next to them and there were so many they actually kept me warm....
