Boquete comes alive.

Saturday 27th November

The sun goes down and the fun starts.

Battle of the bands.

The one at the back got a big cheer.



The music went on until 5am and started up again at 7am!
I have a few videos but no idea how to load them into the blog - hopefully I can add them when I get home.
I'm missing the fun sitting here and so I hope to have many more pics tomorrow.

Saturday 28th November - Independence Day.

Marching bands come from all over Panama to celebrate Independence Day in Boquete. The day starts around 7am.







View from the hostel.



The hostel is at the centre back.



A shady character!




Dancing Queen!





And they kept coming as the sun goes down.


The last band moves off 12 and a half hours after the first band. Continuous, non-stop marching bands for nearly 14 hours by the time this lot finished!

I hope all the videos work.
