With only a little over two weeks left in our stay in Perú with IFSA, we had our first of 2 going away dinners last night. We went to a restaurant called Las Brisas de Titicaca. There we had delicious Peruvian food and were enertained by beautifullll costume and dance. They presented dances & music from all of the different regions in Perú, my favorite being the afroperuvian zapatillas and cajones (box drums typical in Perú). The dancers would perform one song and the next song would be for the audience to dance to on the dance floor. It was a lot of fun and I put my salsa lessons into practice!! It was great :) And a great event at the end of this experience.
The weirdest dance were a group of men who danced and did gymnastics while clanging 2 big pairs of scissors in one hand.. Los hermanos tijeras... the scissor brothers?! It was reallyyyyyy cool, nonetheless!
