Carnaval in La Paz starts today
Just a reminder, today's the first day of the Carnaval in La Paz. The malecon is closed to traffic and it's best to avoid the first couple of blocks
up from the waterfront, as well.
Things usually get going at around sunset, so if you have nothing to do, come on down and check it out.
Next Tuesday will be the last day for this annual event.
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

The carnaval doesn't usually impact government offices, to my knowledge.
I believe the parade is a nightly event, not just for the weekends.

Are parades still the only thing in La Pa that ever start on time?

Lots of things start on time around here, Mom. The secret is to be late for things; damn if just about every time I do that whatever it is starts on
time.

Thanks for clarifying that, Jack. Accuracy is everything.
