I also write a blog & share photos (not nearly as good as yours!) @ www.colorinthestreets.com<br />Are you still living in Oaxaca?<br />Thanks for your posts. I'm hoping to do one on La Danza de la Pluma & found your site while researching it.<br />Chris ClarkChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17920386097209803457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710073417412924020.post-5144123893562536392023-11-06T21:01:30.044-06:002023-11-06T21:01:30.044-06:00Nicely done Chris…my favorite time of the year.Nicely done Chris…my favorite time of the year.Dave Abdoonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710073417412924020.post-30946005361006925872023-11-06T17:22:17.673-06:002023-11-06T17:22:17.673-06:00Beautiful!!

In a plaza or plazuela or a church foreyard, etc. When I would stay in the posada across the street from Paseo Juárez aka Parque Llano there would be a group every year that would set up a stage there — the sound of the dancers’ feet hitting the plywood would resonate throughout the neighborhood. It wasn’t around the time of the fiesta but a few months after.
