This is my favorite dance of the Primaria graduation ceremonies that was held last Tuesday here in Melaque. Next year, as the oldest and graduating class, these girls will be in uniform marching which is much less appealing to me.
I focused on the girls but there are also boys dressed as fisherman trying to catch fish in their net (bottom Foto). Girls are just prettier and Lesely was one of the 'fishermens wives' this year. We had to stop by the grocery store to buy fruit for her basket. Amazing what a hairdo and makeup do for these 13 year olds.
There are a few YouTube videos of this dance but nothing I found worth linking to. It's standard for many Baile folklórico groups around the country.
