Carnival Parade

 I would like to say that Friday is our night to go into town and have a night out but these days it takes no excuse and we are all ready.  But this was Friday and we went into a little outside restaurant called Taqueria el Pelon and had the Chile Relleno which are Stuffed Peppers.  Everything is done outside just like an outside BBQ,  and we did watch them taking the seeds out of the peppers, LOL.  The peppers were stuffed with steak and then wrapped with bacon and placed on the heat over hot coals.  They were so delicious but the end by the stem got very warm, in fact my lips were burning for a little while but so worth it. 

So Saturday was Queen selection and our girl Barbie came in second.

Now Sunday was the big parade. The bikes started it off, now we think they must have come from Hermisillo as we have never seen any in Kino Bay before.

Prescott College had a float, it is a little college right here in Nuevo Kino

 Almost everything was fishing orientated as this is a fishing village, and the winner of the Queen selection was sponsored by the fishermen.

It was short and fun but the parade itself lasted for hours as they traveled all the way from Old Kino down to  Nuevo Kino and back must have taken them hours.

There were a couple things that resembled our parades, one street walker with cotton candy. 

After the parade we would have to go out to Pargo Rojo for dinner which was a challenge getting there but once there and after a margarita and a half all was well.  It was very busy but we serenaded by three hombres, a good day was had by all.
