Reports, stories, pictures from my new ventures of visiting and living in Mazatlan, Mexico...Hasta Luego! In 2008 I went there for the first time, followed by two more visits in the following years. Then came the Pandemic! But in 2023/24 I could make plans again. During each visit I added posts to ths blog, amd all are accessible via the side bar.

After death in Mexico
Now I can understand why they celebrate a joyous festival, here in Mexico, when it comes to remembering "Los Muertes", 2-3 weeks ago: They are partying right in the cemetery, and the dead, los muertes, really have a very beautiful environment to enjoy. This is a long shot from the most dreary of all especially named Sundays in Old Germany where you remember the dead on "Totensonntag", under grey and rainy skies standing in the muck, late in November, fighting off your latest cold.
Wouldn't you like to be buried here instead?
This cemetery is outside the village of Vainillo, about 40 k outside of Mazatlan close to the Airport.
