It must have been a fun experience, especially since it wasn't planned. A pleasant surprise. I definitely would have enjoyed the music, the vivid and vibrant colors and the activities all around that parade. The residents put a lot of work into the festival (every year!) so it's nice to support and enjoy it. I can see that the kids are also involved, complete with beautiful costumes. I'm sure they put a lot of time into practicing their dances.

Kudos to your cab driver. I agree, some can be full of useful information.

Thanks for sharing!
