We had dear Valorie over for dinner the other night and managed to sit outside all evening, except when we came in to have dessert. It is always a little dicey before dark, because of the mosquitos, but as long as there is a breeze in our patio, it is do-able!
Everyone knows about the squeegie kids at home who wash windsheilds in exchange for spare change. In Cancun there is another version of it - circus acts. The is a juggler, dressed in a clown outfit, juggling balls. On the other corner, there was a guy with two large balls on the end of long ropes,which he swung all around him. Very enterprising, yes....????.. and very entertaining!
Ok, these are the LAST Guadalupe pics, I promise....!!! Dec. 12 was the big day, and the parade through our neighbourhood included trucks with floats, cars (all honking!!) with banners, and even men and women on horseback - loud music, lots of images of Herself, and every person in the neighbourhood was out in the street to clap and cheer.
In town, the parades went on all day and it was great fun!
