Well, instead of attending a full day of class, I opted to go with one of the teachers and some students to attend the cultural event in Cuidad de Vieja (the old city), which is near Antigua. The festival is called the day of the devil and is celebrated by a huge party in the city with a parade of floats by different family groups. Each one of the floats or groups in the parade was a different family or family group. As we walked along the streets enjoying the parade, we were also being provided with Spanish lessons by our teacher. The afternoon was quite fun, although my feet are very sore at the moment. The following photos were taken during the festival today. Most of the photos are of children on the various floats.
