Viviendo en Spanglish

Life is great!! So because it is a joy to be alive I must complain about something, we wouldn't want all the joy to suck the fun out of life!!

Missing Yuriria




I was born in a little town in the state of Guanajuato in Mexico.
This Church sits in the center of the town, where people gather once or twice a year to celebrate the town Fiestas.
Growing up I remember walking by the castle designed that is now part museum. Walking to El mercado to get the meal for the day, walking to visit Tia Rosa in the other side of town, walking with my friends in our way to the ice cream shop.

Right around the church is where every year at the end of december and the beginning of January the town would hold the Fiesta of San Agustin, santo patron de Yuriria. The whole place that you see here it's covered with mechanical games, food vendors, clothes vendors, freak shows (of animals) a glass maze, hounted trailer houses (casa de horror) more food vendors, toys, and tons of people.



I miss my Yuriria, I want to go visit.... but i'm poor :(

I, too, miss my mom's hometown and Guadalajara...
AƱoro regresar, but for one reason or another, I just haven't been able to.

Cuidate!
