Carnival 2016: The Mas Reaches Climax

Months of preparation gave away to the Carnival Road March 2016 this past Saturday in Belize City. The parade of the bands got off to somewhat of a slow start on Caesar Ridge Road as the rain came down with a vengeance. Still yet, thousands lined the route to view the sights and sounds and the dazzling costumes. And even though tragedy struck on the eve of the parade, the merriment could not be contained in the biggest street party. Here’s a recap.
