Pictures from Ano Nuevo (New Year's Eve - 2011)


FIESTA!!

Gosh, I'm beautiful! I think God made a mistake making me a man! haha

Here, the men dress up like woman to be the 'widows' for the men to burn. Then they block off the street and dance, scream, cry, and get money. It's great!

Here also, they make dolls every year for New Year's Eve. Then, they burn the old doll, to celebrate killing the old guy and bringing in a better one. Diego, the dude we baptized, made one of me. Then they burned ME. It's an honor, really. But, what the crap. Me, I didn't do anything!
