Hola, When is carnaval in La Paz and do we want to be there then or not? We like to party, but not all night. Annie

If I remember it right the CARNAVAL in LA PAZ is an annual event held six days before Ash Wednesday. The other popular celebration is the Fiesta de La
Paz which is held on May 3rd, or the anniversary of the founding of the city.
I think it was some time in late February when I went in 2003, and it was alot of fun and a real family event. It's not an animal show or roudy
partying, but good clean family fun with good party atmosphere.
I will go again. It is well organized and we did not experience any problems.

Well, Bruce, we don't have a year so we're trying the not so much better places. Which we sometimes prefer. More atmosphere, and contact with
others. We have several to try as we picked up info last year when in La Paz. Thanks anyway for the heads up.
JR, we will look for you down there. What do we look for? Annie.
Either this

Or this

But, depending on when you are heading south, I may be in Rosarito and you are most welcome to stop by.
Passed you on the road.

Yep, JR that was you I passed on the road from aguaverde that Iwas telling you about the other day. The picture of the van brought it all back. Well
maybe this trip we can make up for the visit we missed,k
Annie T. - 10-31-2004 at 01:49 PM
JR, Those bamboo racks are pretty good. Unfortunately, we are flying down this year, then getting around by bus, ferry, or rented car, so, we can't
take you up on your offer. Maybe another year. We'll be on the lookout down there tho. Annie.
