It brings back my memories of oaxaca and the surrounding villages. Of all of my life experiences I have to say that my experiences with Dia de los Muertos was the most life altering. There is such a joyous love of family. A video cannot replicate the sounds, smell of incense and marigolds, quiet footsteps and most of all the wind, breezes, and spiritual feelings that are aroused. The next experience to this holiday was my trip to the prehistoric caves in France last year. If one's heart is open, the presence will be felt. Jesus,
