You can actually rent out these boats for dinner parties and they stop in the middle of the river for your dinner.



This boat is pulled along a rope that takes you back and forth across the water for a small fee.

A building decorated for the Carnival



You can't see it very well, but there is a little guy in there dressed up for Carnival, because the Carnival was two days after I left so the whole town was decorated for Carnival while I was there - This is a little monument of some sort on in the middle of a bridge
