The night of February first was alive with hundreds of people in the streets of Salvador, mostly dressed in white and blue, some in gold and pink; in honor of maternal deity/energy of the Sea- Yemoja, Yemaya, Iemanja.

The very next day February second would be the climax of the yearly event, with more people; fanfare and Baianos ancestral customs of worship, culture, fashion and other expressions on full display.

Afrikajump joined many faithfuls and adventure seekers who kept vigil on the night of February first in Rio Vermelho- Salvador, and here are some shots of the event.
