We are bringing our traditions to California. We had a lot Cempasuchitl flowers. Next year we are planing to make a big altar. Thanks for sharing those amazing pictures and the knowledge of the traditions.
I hope the traditions were enjoyed in California! If you can find it at a library in CA (I know the San Rafael Public Library has it), borrow “La Festividad de Los Muertos.” It’s a wonderful new documentary about Muertos in Teotitlán del Valle.
