Tengo interés, después de esto para conocer más a cerca de Nicaragua. No he sido más sur de Guatemala en 1984, y he sido pensando de recién sobre viajando –– no sé donde, … México, Guatemala, … tal vez Nicaragua después de escuchando esto. Costa Rica, para mí, tiene el aspecto de ser "usado", o como se dice "gringoized" –– ¿gringoizada? Muchas gracias por la entrevista; la disfruté mucho.April 26, 2008

I posted a video on el palo de mayo. this one is more PG-rated than ones that I have seen in Nica, but it gives you an idea of what I mentioned.April 28, 2008

Gracias por el video. You're right, I think it'd be funny (but interesting still) if someone danced this in a club.April 29, 2008

Hi pussycat,
I checked all the dowload links and the flash player; they all seem to be working correctly for me. If you're using Firefox, try closing it and opening it again. Let me know how it works! :)

Hola JP,
Thank you, I have just come back to this lesson and all appears to be o.k. now.
Hola rcuadro,
Muchas gracias por el video. ¡Qué un baile! Tan lleno de felicidad y color. Estuve interesante a ver que las bailarinas están descalzo.
