Peace Day

We celebrated "Dia de Paz" the other day at school. It was a beautiful sunny day and we took the afternoon off to celebrate the event. After the banners each class had made were put up and applauded for, we went out to the playground. We all held hands in a spiral formation and started singing a song. Apparently there was a choreographed dance as well that I didnt know. But with elementary school children they repeat the song and dance like 5 times and fortunately I picked it up in a cinch and was whirling and twirling with everyone else.  Then something was announced and a mass stampede to the center commenced. I had no idea what was going on (as always), I just knew that all the children were pushing towards the center of the black hole and something awesome must be up there.

Turns out we were releasing doves.

Please stop and look at how cute my school/children are:
