Dili carnival in pictures

The Dili carnival happened on Saturday. Several hundred people showed up despite the rain. Everything was going smoothly until an incident involving a Brazilian national and the Guarda Nacional Republicana of Portugal. I will have more on that later. For now, enjoy the good stuff.

    It's cool to have carnival in TL here. I remember when I was 6 YO(1978), althoguh Indonesian already here in TL, we celebrated the carnival in Baucau.
    I think it's one of good legacies from the colonial country.

    Best,

    Pedro

    Gusmao certainly has a belly! Life doesn't seem to be too bad for him.
