The Cathedral in Mazatlan

as the Christmas symphony ended, a walking jazz band (trumpet, tuba, drums, and the like) playing "As the Saints Come Marching In" entered the theatre, and led everyone out onto the street, where thousands of local Mazatlanas joined us in their traditional Christmas Carnaval Parade, which included a donkey cart pulling a beer keg with free beer for everyone, a beauty contest with several attractive senoritas vying for the coveted title, fireworks, noise, music, cheering and dancing for hours on end...it was fantastic. See our PHOTO GALLERY for pics and video clips.

There are huge iguanas all over the place here in Mazatlan. The swim and even climb the palm trees. Francois caught one. When captured they play dead until released.
