Festa do Padroeiro, Paróquia São Padro, Juruena - Mato Grosso 4 of 4

Yours truly trying out a bowling game

I didn't do too well, but the locals took it very seriously

About 6.30 pm - The sun has set and still the party goes on

Remember the first arrived about 12 hours earlier.


Lolly Pop Kid.


The day ends with bingo and this drew the largest crowd and caused the most excitement of the day.


The winner of the first prize - "Moto Titan" Motor Bike - This can mean a way to travel to a better paying work place. The cost of this bike is about a year and a half's wages.
