A Cultural Day

We've heard about the Tamale Festival since we arrived and so this morning decided to check it out. 160,000 people visit this event annually over two days and it boast the Guinness World Record for biggest tamale. We happened upon Lucy's Tamale Factory who has won awards for the past 3 years. The tamales were tasty little morsels. Unfortunately Owen's didn't agree with him and he has spent the night in bed. It could have been a bug of another kind, but who knows for sure. What are those little traveling carnivals with merry-go-rounds and ferris wheels called? Well they had one of those, music, beer garden, vendors, lots of people and because of the wind, a lot of swirling dust. We didn't stay long.
