Parade of the Oxen Cart

     Well lady's and gents the other day...ok well...maybe not the other day...more like 2 months or so ago I went to this parade. It is a big day in the lives of the Ticos. The Parade of the Oxen Cart in downtown San Jose. Notice with me here that I said downtown SAN JOSE. You see friends there is somewhat of a difference between downtown San Jose and downtown Escazu. A nice cab fare difference huh Shannon?

                                                          This means a little over $20!
(for nothing)
Well a great memory!
So thrilled!
So something that we really love doing and are very good at is making memories. Not just any memories...but memories that at any given time you can sit back and say.... "Remember that one time...."
That phrase has definitely become a daily part of our vocabulary. Well, on this particular day we followed Shannon's lead. He had the directions all printed out and ready to but....unfortunately they lead us in the wrong direction. Wrong city to be exact! (that'll preach) But, we ended up finding the parade and we were even on time. So here are some pics of this fun memory I will never forget!
These kids are no joke



Yup
And that is no joke

I sure hope they aren't unequally yoked!

This little guy was being interviewed.

Wonder what he will be when he grows up?

Yup...that's Jesus
Had some awesome dancing going on.
And music
It was a fun cultural day!



WORD OF THE DAY: No es el fin del mundo.
            Definition:            It's not the end of the world.     
          How I see it:         You'll bounce back!
