Sao Marcos day one part II

We were dropped off at our hotel around 1230am from our evening at the small festival. The small festival had between 650 and 800 people and a raffle prize of a 150kg wheel of cheese, don't worry about picturing the cheese in your head we have photos. We were joined by another GSE team from Florida tonight, it was nice to meet and discuss the preparation process and get a run down of how things have been for them, they have been here for about a week and a half.We had another fantastic meal with some of the local Rotarians which consisted of chicken, pasta, potato salad, bread and who would have guessed it more wine. After dinner we were treated to a shot of coffee ( very similar to the Cuban coffee served by the Cardenas family in Sacramento. Angenor a local Rotarian and former president help me decline the offer of one of the coffee ladies who said that she loved me and would make me coffee every day in California, yes I have pictures. The evening ended with dancing at a concert held at the festival and we stayed long enough to rock out to the accordion solo, yes we have pictures of this also.
