Semana Santa

It must be the biggest thrill for a Mexican child or teenager - a few days camping at the beach at Easter time. Many of the families are on holiday from Guadalajara and other inland cities. Our usually quiet village transforms with food stands, cake displays, plaster mold painting kiosks (you can see here a whole family earnestly painting a Snoopy or a Virgen de Guadalupe) Enrique's favorite "jardin" acticity is a multi-level trampoline with a safely net all around; during Semana Santa there is more than one... not to mention all the merry-go-rounds and carnival shooting stalls. It's really a step back in time.
