Dia Day Los Muertos Parade

This Sunday November 4th was very interesting for all of those who attended the "Dia de los Muertos" parade on 4th Avenue. A huge parade was held as a remembrance to those who have passed away. This day is actually a holiday which is recognized nation-wide as "Dia de los Muertos" which is translated into "Day of the Dead." The parade was very interesting to watch. Many people painted their faces to resemble those who have passes away. Hand-created skeletons and paintings were raised above people's heads' as they made their way down the street. The overall experience was tremendous. It was very interesting to see the amount of time and creativity which was put forth into creating some of these masterful pieces of art. I had a great time and was glad to get the opportunity to be a part of such a wonderful tradition.
