"Carnaval" at the Doorstep

It's time for "Carnaval", the Latin American equivalent of Mardi Gras.  In Mexico City the celebration is only held in certain neighborhoods, and Alejandro's is one of them.  

Yesterday evening, we could hear the music a "Carnaval" group approaching.  We went outside, and the group was dancing in the street right outside of Alejandro's house.  The neighbors all came out to watch, and a few of them were even dancing to the music.



After performing for a while, they then marched down the street headed to a different part of the neighborhood.
