CARNAVAL IN BARRANQUILLA, COLOMBIA
February 1999, I visited Barranquilla, Colombia. It's located in caribbean coast, have more than one million of population. It's famous of industries and commercials but Carnaval In Barranquilla has to be much important, is spectacular!!! They have parades for 2 days("Batalla de Flores" "Gran Parada"), and holding live concerts of famous tropical music bands, it called "Fiesta de orquestas". These are main events with people filled with energy. Do you know female singer named Shakira??? She was born in this city.

We had intervals between band and band, but we never get boring. Because one boy started to dance and a lot of people followed him and they showed us great performance! This is the Colombian way to enjoying life!
