The Days of the Dead begin tonight, but last night, being a festive Friday, San Miguel got an early start on the celebrating.
The photos don't give you a clue as to the bone crushing crowd that was just 20 feet away. Truly festive with stilt dancers and cohetes firing off over the crowd. Tonight there will be another parade of catrinas, hundreds of little trick-or-treaters in the Jardín, and the LOLAS will be there, too!
¡Hasta entonces!
