Carnival



This past week was Carnival- the biggest holiday in Grenada. On Monday night, they had a parade that we went to. It's not a parade in the American sense, with floats and whatnot. There are no floats and candy in this parade. Here, a parade is a thing that everyone gets to participate in. Basically, everyone dresses up in horns and other weird apparel, and they all march through the city while dancing to loud music and drinking. It's quite the scene. We didn't march, though. We just went to the start of the parade where everyone was getting ready to march. We got a couple of pictures and then decided we were done. It was an interesting experience.
