well... it's the 1st time i saw presidential investiture that the president didn't wear a suit & tie... i'm really glad Evo Morales kept his traditional style...
about the sash for bolivia, it's very colourful, isn't it?
i wonder the next time he make a state visit to spain, how the sash would look on the spanish royals.. it would be interesting.

anyhow, is it common for latin american countries to make a state visit to spain, or is it just an official visit?
