On and off-piste dressing-up



As was stated above the theme for Carnaval was Andalucia! Some of us did (Ruth, Sandra and David)
and many of us didn't (This motley crew including Pablo - a lot more wholesome than last year - his beau, and some Thomas Cook reps)
Bob had a cardboard matador's hat, but refused at the last minute - just like last year!
On Big Procession Night it would also have been hard to spot the theme from the floats. Several were clearly just recycled from the Puerto del Rosario carnival - theme Circus, and - most bizarrely - one was a "prison" (presumably an Andalucian one)!
As usual it was two hours late, wonderfully noisy with the drummers - and the far-flung sweeties hit many spots.
Blue Rock closed at 4 am (long after we departed)
Amongst the wayward were some shy Mexicans!
