Sue gave Pedro and Mariana candles to place at the foot of the statues to burn in honor of their beloved deceased. Melted wax from hundreds of candles covered the floor and the benches, but no one minded. Their church had no electricity and the candles were not only a symbol of love and devotion but they gave much needed light. When the Mass was ended some people set up their stands in the plaza to sell food or crafts. Others spread things out on the ground.
Money is scarce so the people trade with each other.
They love to trade, it is a part of the fun of a fiesta. The plaza was filled with bands playing music for dancers and singers dressed in colorful costumes. Children as well as grown-ups joined in the dances. Refreshments are always plentiful. In Latin American countries, All Saints Day is a very happy day.
