Dia de Muertos (Day of the dead) very cool

31.10.2016

Old Town San Diego is a historic and Hispanic area. It also was Dia de Muertes, which is a nice way to celebrate loved ones who have passed. Day of the Dead (Spanish: Día de Muertos) is a Mexican holiday celebrated throughout Mexico, in particular the Central and South regions, and by people of Mexican ancestry living in other places, especially the United States. It is acknowledged internationally in many other cultures. The multi-day holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died, and help support their spiritual journey

It was really nice to see everyone including the little kids make a drawing with their family members passed names in it in tribute. Many displays around town, and in cemetery, which is one of the oldest in US. One picture did turn out a little scary afterwards when we saw it though!.....
