Desfile

These are from the Patriotic Parade on Independence Day, Sept. 15. The first picture is of some of my students. They dressed up as doctors, lawyers, engineers, etc. to show that a good education can lead to a bright future.
In another you can see that the parking lot was full (horses) and the rest are various from the day. In the last picture if you look in the background there are 4 large bags stacked against the wall. It´s all sugar! Hondurans eat tons of sugar, like 2 or 3 huge spoonfulls in each cup of coffee and even sometimes in orange juice and other drinks. OH, and my favorite picture is of the ¨bandstand¨, the truck, where the M.C. stood, while his ¨caddy¨held an umbrella to shade him. Also if you see the picture with the flag of Honduras, there were about 10 of those along the route and each time all the marchers had to stop when they came to it and salute it as they walked by. Hondurans are so far the most patriotic people I know.
