New Year's! In Mexico! Yay!

This particular party was down the street from us. See the little corner store, or tiendita, on the left? One of the family owns a music store or something; set up this massive sound system on the street. The music could be heard all over the village. Pretty damned obnoxious, and it went on until about 4 am. REALLY loud. But the kids around here really enjoyed it. On the right, we see a young cabellero doing (I forget the proper name) a cut dance. You've seen it on TV: looks like the guys is trying to slice the girl in half about six times in a row, then they dance, then slice, then dance. Ouch.
