Most of the Carnaval events occurred at night so getting good photos was difficult. However I could make short movies, which worked better in the low light.
"Burning of Bad Humors" Every year an effigy is
burnt to rid the city of something bad. This year it was the high price of
tortillas (Osama Bin Laden, and a Taxi Strike have been previous years).
The Carnaval parade contained many floats,
Each with many dancers and it's own music (often live). This was a popular event
for the entire family.
