Images of Independence Day Weekend

As promised, here are the pictures of Independence day weekend which includes El Grito and also Guanajuato. So I'm going to try and attempt to tell a story with these pictures.



(Left) Is it snowing now in Mexico? Nope. Thankfully it's not! This was some white stuff sprayed on us during the 'Viva Mexico' part of the Grito. This wa how our weekend started, with the Grito at Zapopan Plaza. The place was packed with people!

(Right) This is a great picture of what we did in Guanajuato. Yup that's right. We climbed stairs. Climbed tons of them! Guanajuato is a city built on hills. So up and down we went.

(Left) But once we've reached the top of the hill, the view was soooo worth it. The background there on the picture is actually the city with its brightly coloured houses. Little fact: That's actually someone's house we were actually standing on.

(Right) As the night approaches, the view of the city starts to look different. I love this picture. It kind of reminds me of Christmas, with all the twinkling lights.
