Members of a comparsa, an Uruguayan carnival group, perform a candombe with their drums while parading during the Llamadas in Montevideo, Jan 31, 2013. Thousands of people crowd the capital's traditionally black neighborhood as costumed drummers and dancers kick off a street fiesta known as "llamadas" -- Spanish for "calls." The parade originated from the colonial period and started as a parade of slaves on the streets of the city. [Photo/Agencies]
