The next time you have a bride who says she wants a really festive, fun wedding, you might suggest a parade. We came upon this fun procession in downtown Oaxaca....the bride and groom left the church followed by a marching band, two gigantic puppets representing them, a balloon with their names on it, women in native dress carrying baskets of flowers on their heads, followed by all the guests as they walked from the church to the reception. Perfect strangers from all walks of life, lined the streets wishing omar and olga congratulations. Seems there are a few things we might learn about life and celebrations from the Mexican people. As for me, it seems I still have Mexico on my mind!
