The Mardi Gras Parade in Ajijic

I have been having lots of problems getting on the internet lately. I am going to put a few photos of the parade on here and if you want to see more you can see them on Accesslakechapala.com. I am writing about it on there but it might take three or four days before it gets posted. The parade was fun but of course someone went after me while I was trying to hide and save my camera and really blasted me with a lot of flour. But I know not to go to the parade if I don't want to get floured.
I don't care about myself but it is a real drag trying to get it out of my camera lens. Fortunately, I am getting another camera next week.

  1. Thanik you for sharing these fotos! It looks so bright and happy there! It's like another world in Ajijic isn't it! Not like anything here in the US that's for sure! They are a happy culture for the most part...it's like going back to the 60's when things weren't quite so advanced as they are here in the states. Again though its a tourists town by the looks of it so that probably explains all the parades and festivals. For they don't have quite so many parades in Mexico City.

    1. Thank you for your comment. I have been feeling a little down today and your comment once again reminded me of what a nice life I have here. It is beautiful here and I have to keep that in mind on my off days. I love this life. p

  2. Something just looks wrong about a cowboy on a cellphone.

    1. Hi JimS. It is always strange for me to see that too. Not just one cowboy but two cowboys on cell phones. p
