devils and more..

To see clips of this post click here
On Saturday later, we went to Uquia, to the mojon near the cemetery, where the band had begun to play
we waited, knowing that the comparsa would come down the hill, but we didnt expect the amazing view we would see!

Devils began to appear , fireworks to explode and hundred of lights multiplied by the mirror the dresses had... devils use mirrors to reflect and to reject the negative energies that they can suffer like all human being.

And they wear masks because it is considered there is no social class in carnival, that is why also they play and whiten with talc, to erase who they are in these days of carnival, and thus to be able to enjoy equal to equal..

The devils came down and mixed with people, one took the devil buried and showed to the rest, who spreader beer, wine, talc and foam to celebrate the carnival beginning...
