One of the world's best carnivals currently taking place. Yesterday was the amazing and beautiful Guachaerna night parade. Today is the Battle of Flowers of Santo Tomás (or Santoto) is taking place. All on YouTube to enjoy.
The Garabato of Emiliano. This is a folkloric dance with a long history. You can notice the leaders of the Garabato dance for their different colour socks. It is the struggle between life and death. The skeletons of course are death and the lady in white is life. The hero defeats death and the dance continues. Life has triumphed! Scary death skeletons and child slaughter from 14:00. Life/death battle from 16:20 listen to those ladies scream in teror!
