Maybe I am biased in my opinion but Latin Americans know how to party. The festival is colourful the food delicious and its people are fun with a capital F.
Vendors and Attendees |
Foods from Panama, Puerto Rico,Chile, Mexico, Argentina, Peru as well as their art and crafts and music...
Maia eating Churros and Kola Champagne From Jamaica |
When you live in the south of the USA a little Latin flavour is welcomed and I did not know how hungry and thirsty my soul was of those Latin rhythms and interactions until that day...
Starving I arrived at River Street where it was obvious that the Latin American persuasion had taken over for the day...
My kids danced, ate, shopped and learned and although they are very proud of their southern heritage there is Latin blood running through their veins and I wish for them to never disconnect from those traditions...

The festival has quenched my thirst we all know that is a temporary situation but knowing that the festival will be back next year makes my city dearer to me...
Peruvian Dancers |
This image for some reason takes me back to an old time...
Mexico Represents |
Take time to enjoy what your city has to offer all it took was 20.00 dollars to eat buy a few trinkets and we even danced off what we ate...
To watch artists at play is priceless...
Happy Monday in whatever corner of the world you might find yourself on this Harvest Moon evening...
Stay Sweet Peeps...
Wow, you pics are amazing!
ReplyDeleteoops...your pics.... : )
ReplyDeleteNICE!!! Looks like my kind of festival! I just tried the inca cola the other day, too. My friend is Peruvian and she "made" me try it; otherwise you know how offended we can get when we offer food and it's not taken :)
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm a new follower from Tuesday Train Hop =). Love the photos! Please visit me when you have a moment. I am following you via GFC
ReplyDeleteThose photos are absolutely beautiful! You blow me away every time!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun festival.
hon these photos are stunning. You captured the vitality and life of the festival perfectly. xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat pics and the music got me pumped up, lol. You are absolutely right, they do know how to party. My cousin married a Puertorican, I didn't get to attend because she lives out of state and it's quite a distance away. I did hear though, it was a blast. Lot's of salsa dancing. I wish I could have experienced it. Anyway, I am following you through the blog hop, please feel free to come follow mine as well http://skylarinc.blogspot.com/.
