Kookeri Festival

I went to a Kookeri Festival this weekend in Kostenets. It's a Bulgarian tradition that pays homage to past tribal Bulgaria. Groups dress up in bear skins, pose as different types of animals, and perform tribal dances. It was very interesting. The best way to tell you about it, is to show pictures. I will put up some pictures of the festival within a couple of weeks. Till then click this link. It has a few pictures of what I'm talking about. It's in Bulgarian, so to get to the next picture just click the link at the very bottom of the page that says "следващата."
