Gran Poder and the Queen’s Jubilee

We were lucky enough to arrive in La Paz in time for The Gran Poder. It was an amazing street parade, filled with colourful costumes and dancers.

Notice the can of beer in the lady’s hand! There was a person walking beside them with a cartoon, handing them out when things got too hot!

There was even time for a chat on the mobile!

 

 

After out morning visit to the Gran Poder we attended a street party, complete with a Beatles tribute band, organised by the British Curry House to celebrate the Queen’s Jubilee.
