Well Carnaval has arrived once again here in Mazatlan. It started last Thursday, February 11 and runs through Tuesday, February 16 (Fat Tuesday) the day before Lent starts.
This year the city isn't decorated as it usually is for Carnaval. The lighted masks that were put up earlier in the month have been taken down. We heard that the unusual rain storm we had a few weeks ago ruined them. We were sad to see them come down.
We have chose to spend Carnaval this year at our timeshare, Torres, which is north of Maz. We arrived at Torres yesterday, Friday and will stay until Monday. This way we get away from alot of the noise and traffic from Carnaval. However, we will still get to enjoy the fireworks on Monday night which are always spectacular and we can watch them right from our condo. The 2nd parade will go right by our condo but during the day on Tuesday, the last day of Carnaval.
We are enjoying our stay here at Torres and will be celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary tomorrow here on Valentine's Day. For those of you who don't know, we were married on the beach here at Torres. So it holds a very special place in our hearts.
Well Happy Valentine's Day to all. Have a very "sweet" day with your loved ones.
