Happy "Día de Muertos" (Day of the Deaths)

       For our english-speaking visitors. Happy Halloween!. Here in  México is "Día de Muertos" (Day of the Deaths), on November 1st, and 2nd. This year we will be walking around deaths. momies, vampires, and Catrinas...
       Literary Calaveras (skulls)  are written as epitaphs for the living. It´s a fun  way to remember the deaths. In local newspapers publish Calaveras from living politicians, also a way to make fun of them.  Many calaveras were written about the individuals in a given profession. Butchers, teachers, priests, housekeepers, artists, mail carriers, and shopkeepers were all satirized by writers of calaveras. I´m giving you one...  People goes to the pantheons, to sing, eat, and remember their love ones. Also they dress up, cook special food and big parties. It´s a nice time to visit México.
