Day O' the Dead
Some snaps from Day of the Dead II can be found here:
http://garyayala.smugmug.com/gallery/2101562 Gary PS- Day of the Dead is the Aztec equalivent of our Memorial Day. But they go a step further than we, (those wacky Aztecs), by bringing the honored dead back for a family meal and the sharing of memories between the living and the dead. G

I was planning on going to Olvera Street last Thursday, but ended up not feeling too well. Thanks for sharing, great pics! For anyone interested, there is a good Dia De Los Muertos article here.

Dia de los Muertos, as you properly mentioned, is equally as fascinating (as those crazy Aztecs had an obsession with death) as it is ... mmmhhh ... warm ... comforting. Together, the entire family addresses death, after life, life, family history, et al. And always, good food as the living family shares a meal and memories with their expanded family from the here after. Gary
