In another corner of the Jardin (called Zocalo in other cities) a wedding party has opted to share their celebration with the downtown crowd.

I'm not sure this is not against the law somewhere?

The wedding party continues ... Whether they mistake sis and I for part of it, I am unsure but shamelessly accept the alcoholic beverage being passed out.

You may say "this has to have SOME meaning ...". Yes, it's fireworks - almost every weekend here!

Dare we accept another from the next gal that comes along?

The wedding procession moves along, apparently exiting the city center block by block in an outward marching spiral as the night goes on.

Back on the square or Jardin as it is called uniquely here, there are many musicians both for hire and simply taking a break from a nearby restaurant gig.

One day walking through the Benito Juarez park, we encounter a group of kids heading to the lady of honor's evening Quienceanera.
