It is hard to convey how special the pantheon in San Antonino is. Maybe an aerial shot would do it. I can just imagine what it might look like, an acre or two, exploding with color.
As the days progressed, people just kept bringing more and more, huge armloads.
People continued cleaning and decorating the graves.
The flowers seemed to glow.
There was music, laughter, happiness, as families worked with a subdued intensity.
The more I learn, the more accepting and open I am, the more I am humbled and blown away by this culture. This is such wonderful and healthy way to deal with death. There was such energy, happiness and we were in a cemetery! There were times when I was so overwhelmed, my head spun, like I was tripping... uh, not that I would know.

Thank you for all the photos. It is very special that you are recording this. I was happy to see my town Chicago represented.
