a little late, but this is Andrea and I after swing jumping off the bridge in Banos
The Otavalen dancers at dinner last night....sorry these pictures arent great
an even worse pictures of the show at dinner....but in this part of the show, there was a man in a huge mask, with a face on both sides. this is representative of the "diablo". when the spanish colonized and conquered the incas, the incas had no word for what exactly the christian "devil" is, they had "diablo" (or its Quechua, the old indigenous Incan language) equivalent, which was a all powerful being that had the ability to be good or bad, with 2 faces to represent this. you cant see him, but he's there, and i knew what it was! :)
