Chasing The Golden Quetzal

To go beyond the ordinary.

Media Update

We got up at 6am this morning and walked around the streets looking at the Alfombres (explanation in previous post). People start making the Alfombres around 10pm and worked through the night and into the morning. As the processions make their way through the streets they will walk over the Alfombres and destroy them.
