After a two-year hiatus, one of Laredo’s most popular festivals, returned to the Sames Auto Arena, the Laredo International Sister Cities Festival.
For one weekend only, the Sames Auto Arena was transformed into an indoor Mexican mercado. This year, attendants will find artisans representing 67 cities and 20 states from Mexico and 4 countries from Central and South America.
A variety of offerings were available for purchase throughout the weekend including clothing, food, jewelry, leather goods, hand-crafted furniture and more. Carne seca, tortillas, and candy are a few of the items that people were able to sample and they could enjoy lunch inside the arena as they enjoyed live cultural performances on stage.
This year, performances were done by visiting dancers from Uruapan, Michoacan; and to close out the three-day event, Sunday’s performances were to include Laredo’s home-grown talent with some of the best and quirkiest groups on stage throughout the afternoon.
The last time the festival was held in 2019, there were more than 25,000 attendees over the 3-day weekend.

Parsnip thinks the last video of this didn't quite do justice to her, so she insisted on a new version..

This was taken the same day as the last picture I posted, which seems kind of weird since I just saw this one for the first time a day or two ago. It made me think I should explain something to those who may not be "in the know".
When chubby men laugh, different parts of themselves - parts they may not have been aware of otherwise - jiggle and rub together in very uncomfortable ways. Sometimes, with a real "from the balls up" kind of laugh, like the one in this picture, it is kind of like jerking off with your left hand (if you're right handed, etc) or interlocking your fingers together so you can't tell which ones are which. Suddenly, out of nowhere, parts of you that have been at rest your whole life start moving and, in the heat of this type of weather [it was June], sweating.
Oh well. At least I am drinking water. I'm pleased to see that I had the wherewithall to stay hydrated.
GOD BLESS US, EVERYONE!!!
Family Carabidae....perhaps Carabus genus? ......second largest family of beetles in North America......beneficial in a garde because they prey on other invertebrates.
A beautiful façade of a launderette in Pearse Street, Dublin. The site has a planning permission so we won't see it for long. Thought it would be a good idea to capture before it's too late.
