Kanaval, the time of Ti Chapo - Painted Hats

Something that I miss very much during the Carnaval season in Haiti is the display of all types of Hats in the head of the people. I remember seeing beautiful Haitian women dressed in tight jeans, sopsored white t-shirts with beautiful hats, al types, shapes and colors. Some of the most beautiful girls would be making their own parades trying to take the last soud of their favorite band.

Whatever happen to these hats. i don't know about you but I rarely see these things in Haiti during the Carnival season. Are the businesses that use to sponsor these activities no longer interested?

I remember we would steal these hats right on the heads of the people. Specially if the have a beautiful one. The way we would do that is with a pick-up truck. As the driver of the truck pretends to be asking for information, one of the passenger in the back of the pick-up would pull the hat and we all in the tryck would take off
