A week of Oaxaca entertainment

While walking through Oaxaca's Juarez Park, Sue spotted an outstanding bird sitting on a tree branch.  It's bright red color is eye-catching, the vermilion flycatcher. 

The people of Oaxaca are eye-catching and their facial characteristics and expressions are captivating.  These photographs display the indigenous beauty and charm of a people.

And always, there are clowns.

We have had a week of entertainment, an international dance festival with both traditional folkloric and contemporary dance, also jazz piano at San Pablo.  We tried to get to all the performances, but exhausted ourselves running here and there, gave up on Saturday and went to the Teatro Macedonia Alcala where we rested while watching the live stream of the NY Metropolitan Opera performance of La Dama del Lago.

It's quieter this week bur the international film festival is still going on and many restaurants are offering special comidas/meals as part of a "Taste of Oaxaca".
