The first day of November the souls of departed children arrive, and on the second day they are joined by spirits of adults. Like all visitors, they are welcomed with food, drink, stories, memories, and good will. Their presence is thought of as a blessing rather than a curse, and brings joy rather than pain to their loved ones. Decorations in the form of macabre but whimsical skeletons and candy skulls abound. The Cabrera Family invites you to participate in this magical time by taking advantage of one or more of the workshops or tours listed below.
Workshops are small and personal, and take place in a family atmosphere.
Tours are respectful of local traditions and sacred rites. 10 -13 hrs. Teotitlan del Valle, Oax. Making Black Mole with Turkey 10 -13 hrs. Tour of the Abastos Market 10 -12 hrs.
