There was a parade in the square in Sucre to commemorate the day Chile invaded Bolivia.
Every school had a marching band and the whole class parading behind.
Most of the marching bands were quite large.
But not terribly good.
Most of the schools had big standards that they carried in front.
This one involved a taxidermied bird. I wondered why Shep doesn’t get a taxidermied thunderbird to carry around.
The entire school marched along behind the bands. First the boys.
Then the girls. Most of the students looked like they didn’t really want to be there.
Because the students were marching from the square back to their schools, they all went different directions. This combined with the narrow streets made it a very crowded and confusing parade.
