In Nicaragua, as in many Latin American countries, October 12th (what in the US is called Columbus day) is celebrated as Dia de la Raza (day of the race). I missed the party Friday morning due to a site visit to a school where we work, but here is a taste of the cultural celebration held in my office to commemorate and celebrate our intercultural ministry.

My family is sponsoring a child in Nicargua and her most recent letter asks us if we celebrate dia de la raza. As I was researching the word, I found your blog...crazy huh? Anyhow, any insight you have into the culture that would help us connect with this kiddo (she'll be 10 in April) would seriously be appreciated.
