I'm in San Blas, Mexico right now, loving the fine weather and new experiences that go along with a first-time visit to a country. And we just happened to come in the midst of the country's biggest holiday, the 9-day celebration of the Virgin de Guadalupe, so we've seen beautiful, colorful processions and celebrations every night since we got to Mexico a week ago, both in Puerto Vallarta and San Blas.
Last night was the last night - with the all-night fireworks and church-bell ringing ceasing (at last!) - so now to sleep all night without bells or bangs will seem weird. The processions were short but fun kids as young as 2 all the way to adults participating - in both Christian and old Aztec costumes - bows and mock arrows, masks, bells and rattles - the works. The processions carried "the Virgin" to the church each night in the form of a statue. On the last night, it was a young girl, and it was so wewet to see the dads walking alongisde the pickup trucks reaching up to steady their young daughters as they enacted the personage, all dressed up with mantle, dresss and flowers.
It'll be fun to see what the Christmas celebration is like. They have a creche in the town square, but unlike in the US, don't put the Babe in the manger until midnight christmas night - he hasn't been born yet! Makes sense!
Thanks to all who sent me birthday greetings - I loved it! And for the requests for more of the previous sale - I'm putting it up today so you can take advantage of it as long as possible. I apologize for taking so long to get to it - just been having too much fun!
Get to the Holiday Feast here: HERE.
Everything comes down December 20th. If you have any problem with the paypal security code thing, let me know and we will work another way for you to get what you want - seems like everyone and his left brother is getting tripped up by the darn thing.
I'll put more about our trip to Mexico on this blog soon.
And you may want to check out this page and bookmark it for later gleaning of some of the very best tools for running an internet business HERE.
I was originally making the page for energy practitioners, but it is full of systems and programs and ebooks anyone can use.
I hope you'll take advantage of all these goodies - I'm revising all my programs as I review my last couple of years from a non-work vantage point, and don't know if I will be offering any of it next year. I've been getting a lot of requests for illustrations and book publishing, and may decide to go in that direction for a while. We'll see.
So, late Happy Birthday greetings to you, and I hope you have a fantastic holiday season. See you next year!
much aloha, and vaya con dios from Mexico!
