It felt so good to be back in Teotitlan del Valle for another celebration, a convite or procession of hundreds of girls and women, all unmarried, through the streets of the village. Each carries a canasta adorned with a religious image, flowers and flags.
It is no easy thing to walk several kms with one's arms up and battling the winds. You really need to start young to be able to manage it, but so many do and it is always a glorious sight and a joyful time.
And, of course, the light at this time of year is always perfect. I'll try to post video mañana. I got some nice shots.
