Carnaval just around the corner.....

The Mazatalan Carnaval is this weekend. In case you don't remember, it's a huge party with lots of events and noise. It's like a Mardi Gras. In fact, the Carnaval here in Maz is the 3rd largest in the world, next to Rio de Janeiro and New Orleans. The theme this year is "Legends of Long Ago". Here is a link to more information about Carnaval if you might be interested. http://www.carnavalmazatlan.net/-c2.php

They didn't put statues up on the malecon this year but something different that are very interesting looking. I have'nt taken pictures of them yet but they had some at the Plazuela in El Centro/Old Town. Here area few pictures we took last week. Carnaval really gets geared up on Friday and goes through next Wednesday. So look for more pictures on our blog next week.
