You found a great spot to take pics of that parade. What fun! I'd fill out your survey but thevlink just takes me to your page. But I love reading stuff like this. About places people go, what they see and do there.
Enjoy Perú. We were just there for 6 months. We tried to see all the ruins (Inca and pre-Inca) but there is a lot. Also there are a lot of parades in Perú!
Thank you for the wonderful pictures, Claire. Not sure what costume I'd want ... maybe the Trump impersonator, since making fun of him is an appropriate response to our Destroyer-in-Chief.
These photos are amazing....I've only seen the Mojigangas (the giant papier-mache figures that are trotted out for weddings, etc.), but this is a whole other level. So cool.
SMdA! A favorite destiny! I'm overdue for a visit! Lovely piece! I didn't know about the Dia de Los Locos ..But not a surprise! They are sooo prolific with their parades!
I hope you find the time to visit soon again! There's more or less a parade here everyday. And if not a parade, fireworks. But the Locos parade is special. It seems like the entire state is here to celebrate.

Thank you, Duwan! Too bad the survey didn't work. Perhaps it only works for subscribers? Great to "meet" a fellow nomad.
Great photos. What creativity in the community, from humorous to downright creepy.
Thank you, and, yes, there was a huge variety.

Yes, mockery seems to be deserved!

Yes, another level indeed. So many people dancing and so many different costumes. My post doesn't do it justice.
I LOVE that parade (and San Miguel).
And the parade seems to LOVE the people back.

Fantastic photos!
Thanks, Michael! I'm sure you have your own collection of fantastic photos from that day!
