    Thanks for you comment. Photos are fascinating but it sound almost American that these folks are spending more money than they need to. Isn't food, drink and fellowship enough? I love the painted bellies...not everyone can carry that look well.

    Thank you for your visit and comment, your pictures are very good, and so many costumes, In the one picture it looks like they are wearing stilts! Where do you live? You said my blog name is your church's motto, what church do you attend? I see you have been blogging for about three years...

    As usual you have captured the festival mood perfectly. I liked the Maveli. I think it was from the starting point.

    Hello, Joseph. Do you remember me? It's Ginnie from Goldendaze-ginnie. I know that you are very fond of Jim Reeves and recently I have received a very interesting email from a man in the Netherlands who has a fan club about him.
    His website is: http://jimreevesfanclub.com/didyouknow.htm
    I think you will find it very interesting. I hope you are doing well and wonder if you are still blogging. Good wishes, Ginnie
