Adulating Relationship through Mexico's Year-Round Fiestas

Mexico is favored with clean beaches drawing people who want to take a break from the cold winter weather. Well, I was one of those people magnetized to the humid Mexican climate. Together with my two close friends, we decided to take the a strenuous trip, with frequent stopovers, amidst the replicating vista of desert and clusters of houses; but our visit was worth the effort with the gift that Mexico imparted to us.

Almost all villages are detailed with colorful banderitas and the people are all dressed-up, working to the beat of mariache bands. To satisfy our curiosity, we stopped over to join the festivities. There was a wedding but the whole community is pitching in to make the occasion festive; in another town was a birthday blowout and the entire community is sharing food and exalting another year of opportunity to enjoy life; while in other towns are celebrations to thank the gods for a bountiful harvest with every household contributing what they can to the buffet table. It was a venture apart from the isolation brought about by the buzzing urban lifestyle I was used to. I discerned that I miss my family, so my next adventure would be towards home.
