Yesterday, Sunday, was the last day of dancing and celebration of the fiesta, la Preciosa Sangre De Nuetra Señor Jesucristo, in Teotitlan del Valle. To say it was windy would be an understatement.
Strain one's neck much? Now I see what those side straps are for... for hanging on for dear life.
After two days of rain and clouds, the sun tried to break through and the clouds were being pushed by some serious winds, which made life difficult for the dancers.
Just imagine having one of those penachos or headdresses on and the push and pull as they catch the wind and act like sails.
These dancers are amazing. They demonstrate such grace, strength and commitment.
This group has three more performances with their last being in December, when a new group will begin their own three year stint.
Be there are be square.
