Day 4 Sunday

The fiesta continues. We started out today to see a Catrina contest for boys and girls, plus a few stage mothers. Walked to a wonderful museum filled with ofrendas, memorials to family members, local police, animals that died. Fabulous ceramics too. Great lunch. Music everywhere. A performance by Ballet Folklorico. Love seeing decorated store fronts, houses as I walk.

Dia de los Muertos

We arrived on Halloween night in Tlaquepaque, the town near Guadalajara that is the center of the festivities. Ofrendas (altars), costumes, flowers and people celebrating the holiday, and alfombras( pictures created with flowers) that are beautiful. The colors are amazing.
