Last friday was Dia de Las Culturas, a holiday here that celebrates all the diversity of all the cultures of the world. Over the weekend there were events in parks and churches all over the city where everyone dressed up and brought food and music representing all different countries. Our kids school also had their celebration and each grade was assigned a country. Then there was an assembly with all the nations flags and a cool dance by the 6th grade class. Afterwards everyone went from class to class to see their presentations and taste food from each place. It was a lot of fun! Kendyl's kindergarten class was assigned Israel so they all dressed as Bible characters. She chose to be Miriam because, "She gets to save her baby brother Moses". It so happened that Kendyl's teacher had dead batteries in her camera so we left ours with her for the day so there are a lot of pictures of her class. PS Kendyl's costume is a pillow case with a curtain tie back for a belt...ya gotta be creative here!
