THE PERFORMANCE

Words cannot explain how wonderful the performance was. People helped us pull the net it was so heavy and we struggled along the route. This video is part 1.. more soon

NANA BANANA BLOCO

This is the Nana Banana bloco we will be just in front of this doing our performance.

GLOBAL OCEAN LEADING THE CARNIVAL

Absolutely amazing but Global Ocean and Mark McGowan will be at the very front of the carnival and leading all the blocos around the route. We are all very exicited and cant wait to begin. Today we had a press conference at the yacht club and also went back to the dump run by Vega to wrap the net and plastic for transportation down to the beach. Also we will be supported by two workers from Vega. Everyone has been wonderful to us and helped enoumously.
