This week starts the Independence Day festivities, or Dieciocho, here in Chile. These people go nuts, and this is a bicentennial year, so it will be special. I am giving you a link to a site about this, as well as showing you a picture of the bottle of Chicha we have already bought. It's a fermented grape drink, and above that, that is all I know. Richard gets off Friday and Monday, and that is because these people are on a serious party binge that will take a while to recover from. Too bad we are the only ones here! As my son would say "Sucks being all of you!" You're missing one heck of a party!
Look at the dress the woman dancer is wearing at the bottom of that site. Dresses of that style are being sold all over Chile, and the children wear costumes of the same look. It should be colorful. (colourful for my Canadian friends)
