Bombas de Agua

Part of the traditions of Las Ferias is that people throw water balloons, generally at the women and especially if they are gringa, como yo! As a group, we were hit on two separate occasions. One was when we were walking to school and Brittany got hit on her foot by a car that was passing by. Then the other was the next day walking back from school. These middle school boys threw 3 at us and we ran away screaming! hahaha They all hit Brittany! My goal is to catch one without it popping and chuck it back at them! I also heard that sometimes they fill the water balloons with pee...nasty boys.
