Puerto Rican Festival
Every year a huge Puerto Rican Festival is held in a beautiful park not far from where we live. If you've heard anything about the reputations of these festivals their not great. Women have been attacked, people get shot, it's got a pretty bad rap. I decided that this year I wanted to see what all the fuss was about after all, we were getting stuck in all the traffic that has to do with it. After recruiting my husband and a buddy, thanks D, we hit it in style and a little early. Turns out we were blown away. There were super fun and naseau inducing rides, tons of amazing food, and all kinds of booths where you could buy things. The point of the festival seemed to be to wear as many things with the Puerto Rican flag on them as possible. That person deserves a prize. Enjoy the characters we met, the brothers with the really long hair, the Big Papa and of course, Te Te.
