more from on top of Billy's roof- Antennas
I woke this morning, a shortly before seven, to the sound of
canon fire fireworks, bells, and a large marching band. Mads asked what the commotion was about, but i had no idea.... Google answered my question for me- it's the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. In Mexico, the Virgin Mary is bigger than both Jesus
and The Beatles. The celebration of the Virgin of Guadalupe is
coming up on the 12th.
Print by Jose Guadalupe Posada, depicting St. Juan Diego and his miracle.
I don't imagine we'll be able to sleep much, for all the fireworks.
